Quick Summary

A government employee has inherited a family business but wishes to keep ownership without being directly involved, while continuing their civil service job. While inheriting a business doesn't automatically disqualify them from their government role, they must ensure their devotion to duty isn't compromised. The option to resign and manage the business is also available if they wish to be more hands-on.

If your friend wishes to continue the family business, he can resign and continue the same.

Admittedly, your friend has already inherited the business. Such inheritance does not disqualify him in continuing with the Job.

However, he is not expected to compromise his devotion to duty in order to look after the business.
