While it is for the concerned authority to take the final call, generally speaking, a pending case under Sections 323/ 341/ 354/ 354b/ 506/ 509/ 34 IPC should not come in the way of getting a government job. You should, however, declare about the pending criminal case transparently in the relevant columns of the attestation form / police verification form when you are offered a job.
But, after conviction in the criminal case, if any, the competent authority may take action against the government servant concerned, which may generally be removal or dismissal from service in such a case.
