The Constitution explicitly prohibits retired civil servants and judges from accepting post-retirement employment under the government to prevent conflict of interest.

Constitutional provisions: (a) Article 148(4): CAG prohibited from further government employment post-tenure, (b) Article 319: Similar restriction for Election Commissioners, (c) BUT no explicit constitutional bar for retired civil servants/judges. Conduct Rules for civil servants require prior permission for post-retirement employment; judicial conventions discourage immediate appointments to avoid perception of bias. Debate continues on codifying cooling-off periods to preserve institutional integrity.
