Bureaucracy

Indian Bureaucracy is the the administrative arm of the Government. Technically a branch of the executive, but legislature also has some control over its functioning.  In the Indian democratic setup, its responsibility is to turn legislation into policies and act as intermediary between representatives and society.  It has a wide range of duties, from formulating and planning difficult technical issues to handing out welfare checks, delivering the mail, etc.

This Administrative system was introduced when India became a crown colony.  Its development mirrored the professionalization of the civil service in Britain; the same as civil service in ministerial government, except that there were no elected heads of ministries.  After independence, the government changed Indian Civil Service (ICS) to Indian Administrative Service (IAS).  A centralized selection procedure was introduced, but the IAS officials are deputed to states or the central government.

Division of work

Division of work is the basis for organisation.It is infact the reason for organisation.Work division implies  that the job to be performed be broken into its component functions and again each of the component functions be broken down into simple repetitive activity. At each stage the sub division of work is followed by the interrelating of the divided parts.The focus should be on grouping the various activities into sub units,collecting the sub units together to form units and interrelating the units to create the overhead organisation.Thus,division of work and integration are the bootstraps for the success of an organisation.
