Legal provisions governing the functioning of the UPSC are primarily outlined in Article 315 to Article 323 of the Constitution of India. These articles provide the foundation for the Union Public Service Commission, detailing its composition, powers, functions, and responsibilities. UPSC is tasked with conducting exams to recruit civil servants, ensuring a fair selection process. It operates independently of the government to maintain impartiality and transparency in recruitment. Additionally, the UPSC Act, 1950, further clarifies its operations, including procedures for handling grievances and advisory roles in civil service matters.
