C) leads to "subject-booted" plutocracy due to "Mai BAAP CULTURE" as civil servants are not then answerable for omission and commissions

D) leads to "corruption" due unholy nexus between two. E) reduces public trust in service and promotes "criminalisation". Measures to counter it: A) Hota Committee recommended for Civil Service Board for transfer and promotion → breaks nexus between two. B) Mission Karmayogi need to be strengthened for capacity building. C) Robust grievance redressal mechanism via CPCIRAMS. D) ensure participative governance as check on Civil Servants via BDO score card of Jharkhand. This would prevent rutting of steel framework.
