The fears and suspicions that we harbour today were harboured by us till a couple of years ago, when the officialdom was manned by the Britishers and the civil service examinations were conducted in London.

P. and C. P. will preponderate in the civil and other services of our country. ##national, official, national language, official language, state, language, hindi, lingua franca, regional, interest, majority, rule, sectional, interest, civil service, public service, bureaucracy, public servant##
