In year 1924 Royal Commission under the chairmanship of Lord Lee submitted report and recommended the setting up of the public service commission.
This led to the establishment of the first public service commission on October 1, 1926 under the chairmanship of Sir Ross Barker.

And this Federal Public Service Commission, the commission made for the slave colony known as India was converted by our [smart or fool?] Indians after independence into UPSC, Union Public Service Commission and it was given a Constitutional status with the promulgation of Constitution of India on January 26, 1950
