What is the role of Acts made by appropriate Legislatures in regulating recruitment and conditions of service in public services and posts under the Union or State?
The appropriate Legislatures have the power to make Acts regulating the recruitment and conditions of service of persons appointed, to public services and posts in connection with the affairs of the Union or any State. However, until such provisions are made by the Legislature, it is competent for the President (in the case of Union services) or Governor (in the case of State services) to make rules regulating recruitment and conditions of service for those services and posts. These rules made by the President or Governor will have effect subject to the provisions of any Acts made by the appropriate Legislature under this article.
