Constitution
The constitution provides for more Civil Services branches to be set up by giving the power to the Rajya Sabha (upper house of the Parliament of India) to resolve by a two-thirds majority to establish new all-India services or central services. The Indian Forest Service and the Indian Foreign Service are the two services set up under this constitutional provision.
At present, the Central Government is finalising on creation of two new all-India services namely the Indian Judicial Service and the Indian Legal Service.
