If this definition, instead of appearing in Art. 236, is placed as a clause before Art. 233(2), there cannot be any dispute that 'the service' in Art. 233(2) can only mean the judicial service, Chandra Mohan v. State of U.P., AIR 1966 SC 1987: (1967) 1 SCR 77....

Notice does not necessarily mean 'communication in writing.

Further, 'service', according to Webster's New International Diction-ary, II Edition, Unabridged, means 'act of bringing to notice, either actually or constructively, in such manner as is prescribed by law'. Oral communica-tion will therefore amount to service too, when no particular mode of service is prescribed. When the Legi...

Supplies and services
Supplies and services, all supplies are not services and all services are not supplies but the complex needs and samenities of modern life and the multifarious obligations of a welfare State mingle supplies and services so much that the concentric circle geometry becomes a misleading stroke of conceptualism in this journal area. For example, an essential commodity is at once a supply and a service. Rushing food supplies to a nation in hunger is a composite operation of supplies and services essential to the life of the community and the order is not bad because it telescopes both, Jagdish Prasad v. State of Bihar, AIR 1974 SC 911: (1974) 4 SCC 455: (1974) 3 SCR 369.Indulging in black-marketing is conduct which is prejudicial to the maintenance of supplies.
