Together these reforms created the famed ‘steel frame’ of Indian administration, the Indian Civil Service, in which the British, and many Indians, took great pride. A further reform was replaced by 1854, when nomination by Company directors was replaced by examination. As the Indian Administrative Service, it survived the Raj, though with its powers reduced to accommodate a democratic politics. Plate 3.1 shows a district magistrate during the tour of the countryside in 1965 as he reviewed, village by village, rights to land still recorded on a cloth map of holdings. ~ Page 60
