19 March 2015 Dear Experts,
I want to Know if a CS in full time employment resigns from the office w.e.f 31.3.2015 and it may take 20-30 days in Filling the Vacancy by the organisation,and thus on 01.04.2015 the Office is Vacant and No Full Time CS is employed?? Will That be Considered as an Contravention of Sec 203 C.A.'2013??? Please Elaborate with Penalties and Prosecution..and if this is not in contraventioned what shall be done??

Thanking You
