Article 311 Explained | Can an IAS Officer Be Removed Without Inquiry? [UPSC]

Can an IAS officer or government employee really be removed from service without a departmental inquiry? In this video, Mayank Bhardwaj explains Article 311 of the Indian Constitution, the protections available to civil servants, and the powerful exceptions where dismissal without inquiry becomes legally valid.

Using a real Jammu & Kashmir High Court case, this session breaks down how the “Pleasure of the President” doctrine works, what natural justice means in government service law, and when the President or Governor can remove an officer in the interest of national security.
