Bombay Civil Service
In India, the Civil Service is the collection of civil servants of the government who constitute the permanent executive branch of the country. This includes servants in the All India Services, the Central Civil Services, and various State Civil Services. As of 2010, there were 6.4 million government employees in India in all levels (Group A to D) within the central and state governments. The services with the most personnel are with the Central Secretariat Service and Indian Revenue Service (IT and C&CE). Civil servants in a personal capacity are paid from the Civil List. Article 311 of the constitution protects civil servants from politically motivated or vindictive action. Senior civil servants may be called to account by the Parliament. The civil service system in India is rank-based and does not follow the tenets of the position-based civil services. History The present civil services of India are mainly based on the pattern of the former Indian Civil Service of Bri ...

In the case of Sindh, there were three direct instances of governor's rule under Mian Aminuddin, Rahimuddin Khan and Moinuddin Haider respectively, in 1951–1953, 1988, and 1998 when the provincial chief ministers of those times were removed and assemblies dissolved.
