In a written reply in Lok Sabha, he also said the government has increased the annual intake of IAS officers to 180 through civil services examination till CSE-2021.

While in case of IAS, it has been increased to 180 till CSE -2021, in case of IPS from 150 to 200 with effect from CSE-2020, disclosed in the Lok Sabha by Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Science & Technology; Minister of State (Independent Charge) Earth Sciences; MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh, who is also Minister Incharge Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT).
