Explanation:

'Its members exercised vast power and often participated in the making of policy. They developed a certain tradition of independence, integrity and hard work.' is the correct sequence.

Option 4 is the correct answer because it is the only sequence that would make a complete sentence which is grammatically and logically correct. The sequence consists of two sentences. Since S1 talks about the Indian Civil Services, it is to be followed by S, P, R and Q respectively, which talks about its members first and then about certain traditions which better served the British. Hence this sequence fits perfectly between the given first and last sentences. Options 1, 2 and 3 are incorrect because they do not make logical or grammatical sense.
