This is about Anil Swarup’s views on applying for post-retirement jobs. I don’t understand how it is below the dignity of a bureaucrat? A bureaucrat, when he is in active service, is chosen for a job by the politician in power without applying for it, while after retirement he can’t be considered if he doesn’t apply for it.
