  1. It is indeed a step towards the right direction......this may now stop the deluge of the IAS who feel no affinity for the state. Atleast those born and brought up or even married here will feel more for the State than of building a house in his/her home town of UP, Bihar or Kerela or Tamil Nadu. This will ensure that the Sikkimese gets ample opportunity for occupying higher posts. The group of SCS should also now look at the past.....the seniors who have retired with out taking the IAS and go meet them and may honour them too.
