Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on Youtube: ⁠www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion Today, we delve into the role of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG), the guardian of the public purse. Established by Article 148 of the Constitution, the CAG oversees the entire financial system of India, ensuring accountability and transparency. Appointed by the President, the CAG serves a six-year term and operates independently, immune to political influence. With duties ranging from auditing government expenditures to advising the President, the CAG plays a pivotal role in maintaining fiscal integrity. Despite occasional criticism, the CAG remains a cornerstone of India's democratic governance, safeguarding public funds and reinforcing accountability. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theiascompanion/message
