While the post of MLA/MP carries a salary and thus constitutes full-time employment, the municipal councillor or panchayat member is considered a part-time activity, and such members are not given a salary. Many PSUs allow their employees to be municipal councillors or panchayat members.

Dear KK ji,
But it is against as per below mentioned points of certified standing order :
DUTIES AND OBLIGATIONS
A workman/employee shall not undertake any assignment, employment or business outside his employment without the Hotel’s specific approval in writing.
Misconduct
1) It is a condition precedent to employment that an employee shall not engage in any business.
2) Engaging directly or indirectly in other employment, trade, business, calling, profession, consultancy or commercial activity for profit or otherwise while in the employment of or on the rolls of the establishment without the previous written permission of the Management.
KK!HR
Engaging in political activities or standing for election for local bodies does not render the employee as having committed misconduct by engaging in trade or business, calling, profession, etc. Unless there is a specific rule that prohibits political activity of any sort (as in government), the quoted rule cannot be cited in this situation.
