Public Service Ethics and Conduct Rules

Subject: Polity

Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth

Civil servants must follow conduct rules emphasizing impartiality, political neutrality, and integrity. The CCS (Conduct) Rules bar certain actions—like taking bribes, unauthorized communication with the press, or personal prejudices in official dealings. Annual property returns and restrictions on commercial employment post-retirement aim to prevent conflicts of interest. Violations can prompt departmental inquiries or criminal prosecution. Ethical codes underscore accountability to the Constitution and citizens. With evolving challenges—social media usage, data privacy—these rules are updated to maintain discipline. Balancing officials’ personal rights with institutional propriety remains a cornerstone of building trust in public administration.
