The correct answer is option 1, Parliament.

Let`s dissect each option to understand why the correct answer is Parliament and why the other options are incorrect:

Option 1: Parliament - Parliament, which consists of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, has the power to create a new All-India Service. All-India Services are created by passing a law in Parliament.

Option 2: Union Public Service Commission - The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is responsible for conducting exams and selecting candidates for various civil services in India. However, the UPSC does not have the power to create a new All-India Service.

Option 3: Union Cabinet - The Union Cabinet, headed by the Prime Minister, is responsible for making policy decisions and implementing laws. While the Union Cabinet plays a significant role in the functioning of All-India Services, it does not have the power to create a new All-India Service.

Option 4: Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions - The Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions is a government department responsible for the formulation and implementation of personnel policies in the civil services. However, this ministry does not have the power to create a new All-India Service.

In summary, Parliament
