of <h1>Supreme Court defines 'office' as position with attached duties of public character per Oxford Dictionary</h1> The Supreme Court has clarified that 'office' means a position with attached duties, particularly of a public character. In P.V. Narasimha Rao v. State, the Court adopted the Oxford Dictionary definition as 'a position to which certain duties are attached, especially a place of trust, authority or service under constituted authority.' The Court referenced McMillan v. Guest where the House of Lords defined office as having indefinite content but essentially meaning 'a position or place to which certain duties are attached, especially one of a more or less public character' and as 'a subsisting, permanent, substantive position, which had an existence independent of the person who filled it.' This judicial interpretation has been consistently followed in subsequent cases including Statesman (P) Ltd. v. H.R. Deb and Mahadeo v. Shantibhai, establishing that office fundamentally means a position with certain duties attached.
