Interface - A film on IFS and India's Place in the World.webm

The Indian Foreign Service (IFS), a part of the Civil Services in India, has carved a unique place for itself in the world and is recognized as a role model, especially in other Third World countries. Set up post Independence, the members of foreign services have worked very hard to create a positive and strong image of India in the world forum. In the early years, the foreign service concentrated on issues of security but today, diplomacy has come to encompass many various facets, including culture, economics, politics, NRI affairs, media, etc. More recently, there has been a stress on economic diplomacy, especially post globalization and liberalization in India.
