Should I go for IPS or IAS after doing BA?

IAS is more prestigious and popular than IPS. However, IPS is not that far from IAS when it comes to prestige and popularity. IAS is focused more on the administrative part of the job, but the IPS is more on the application and how to keep the peace in the society. Of course, their work for the betterment of society will define who is better. Though both the exams are held by UPSC, but both of them are different in their function. The purpose of the IAS, IPS is serving the nation directly or indirectly. We cannot judge one field over the other. Both the fields has their own importance. From a comparison point of view, an IAS officer can sometimes restrain an IPS officer so IAS is more powerful because he exercises administrative policies like such as administration and management of a particular district or state and also head of the district. IPS mainly deals with Law and Order.
