The penalty of removal from the central government service is not a bar for a future employment under the same government. Please note that Rule 11(xiii) of the Central Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1965, which defines the penalty of “removal” itself clearly states this fact, as shown below:
“(viii) removal from service which shall not be a disqualification for future employment under the Government;”
Therefore, it should be clear that the penalty of “removal” from an earlier service under the Central Government is not a disqualification for future employment under the same Government and you can apply for another employment.
However, please keep in mind that you may have to satisfy at the time of seeking the new employment as to why (and what grounds) you were removed from the earlier service. This is because this aspect may be relevant for showing your conduct and discipline in the previous service.
