Yes, going for arts in class 11th will be a good idea. But, let me tell you that there is no such particular stream which is considered the most appropriate for civil service exam. As you can see in the last year results, the maximum number of candidates selected for IAS were holding professional courses but that doesn't means that you have to pursue a professional course to succeed in civil service exam. You just need to be focused and have to prepare separately for the civil service exam, no matter which stream you belong to.

Government organization gives study leave after you have completed minimum years of service (3-5 years) that when you have completed your probation period. There is nothing like UPSC leave, the government gives study leave for academics/professional enhancement, but many people prepare for this exam apart from completing some professional degree. So, it is up to you how you use this sanctioned kind of sabbatical.
