Indian Railway Management Service and engineers !
Thanks to Sri Piyush Goyal , Railway Board and Govt of India a golden era now for engineers of India !! How? Almost all metro projects headed by IAS . Tendering and award of contracts by consultants , verified by consultants and paid by finance .. good easy model with no intellectual engineering input to improve . Reg professionalism less said the better . Bridge engineering used to be top proud seat but got progressively closed down . Then new culture of prime consultants, consultants etc layers finally even to certify bills put in place to assure safety while paying contractors but still assure fair returns to stakeholders. The system has become putrid . Anyway simple stores code application contract tender for design construction including engineering and trouble shooting in place, every technical job is now open to non technical person. Management is key word . So UPSC will scrap all engineering services for railways and include IRMS under allied services in IAS
