If a Muslim government servant wants a second wife and their personal law permits it, must they still seek permission?

Conduct RulesCCS-CONDUCTRule 32

Yes. Rule 21A specifically requires prior permission even where personal law permits bigamy. The government evaluates whether the second marriage raises administrative or security concerns before granting or refusing permission.
