Before suggesting you the appropriate stream for your higher secondary level, I would like you to give a brief introduction of the civil service examination conducted for IAS,IPS,IFS and other civil services.
The civil service examination is conducted by union public service commission and in order to become eligible for the exam, one must be graduate within the age limit of 21-30 years.
The examination comprise of two stages of written examination and are followed by an Interview.
The First stage of the examination is called Preliminary Stage and it comprise of two compulsory papers:
General Studies
Civil Service Aptitude Test
The Second stage of the examination is known as Main exam and it comprise of the following compulsory papers:
English
One Indian Language
Essay Writing
General Studies
Apart from compulsory paper, the Main exam also have optional papers in which from the list of various subjects, candidates need to select any two subjects and each of those subjects will have two papers.

Now, coming back to your question, as you can see that one of the most important subject is general Studies which has been included in both the stages, you have got to be good at it. For that, its not mandatory that you take history or geography in the +2 level, but you need to have great amount of knowledge regarding the History of India including the freedom movements, Indian and World Geography, Indian Polity and governance.,Economic and social development, General issues on environmental ecology, bio-diversity and climate change, General science which you may study as a subject in your +2 level or you may prepare for it separately without having it in your academics. As far as Civil Service Aptitude Test is concerned, it comprise of questions based on Interpersonal skills including communication skills, Logical reasoning and analytical ability, Decision making and problem solving, General mental ability, Basic numeracy ,Data interpretation ,English language comprehension skills and preparation for such type of question need to be done separately as most of the topics are not discussed under any stream in the +2 level.
Now moving on to the main exam, apart from General Studies, you will need to have good command over subjects like English and Essay Writing and you may master into these areas along with any stream. As far as any One Indian language is concerned as well as the optional subjects, it completely depends on your interest and expertise and hence, you do not need to belong to any particular stream to do well in these subjects.
So, as you can see, it depends how you are going to manage and maintain your education along with having the interest to write the civil service examination. If you see the qualification of the candidates who have cracked the examination, you will find that the list includes Engineering students, Chartered Accountants, Arts student etc. So, basically, the examination has been designed in such a manner so that students from every stream gets an equal opportunity. So, first of all, pursue you higher secondary with the subject combinations you are comfortable with and follow you interest and expertise even in your graduation.
