What will be the suitable answer to this question?
You may get answer from the Judgement of SC in Petition by Ms. Anita Turab (for protection of Civil Servants). Which says:-


Illegal orders: Civil servants owe their first and foremost allegiance to the law and the Constitution. They are not bound to obey orders from superiors which are illegal or are not in accordance with accepted practices and rule Const. based norms; instead, in such situations, they must record their opinion and, if necessary, dissent.

Well that what I was looking for.I was in confusion that whether in this kind of an awkward situation you go for obeying your authorities order or you gonna obey rules.But After all,It is a bad situation if asked in an interview,as it totally depends on the panelists that they agree to Supreme Court judgment or they agree with our mostly followed rule of "Yes to authorities"!

Well no one noted whether you are issuing the visa or just making the process urgent . I would simply comply and forward the application immediately to concerned authority who issues visa, it would be their job to look into legal matters

It is easier to say no to the Prime Minister than to your immediate boss. That's how such things work.

As this is an interview question, the best answer would be to say No which will show your honesty. In real life situation the best way would be to stall
My question was not about the procedure through which higher authorities will be going to force.It was about the choice between authorities and rules.What if they properly follow the procedure to force me?

I think your own level of authority must also be considered in examples . If you are visa issuing authority you are probably not collecting applications and you are in a better position to confront CM/PM and the gullu butt who has submitted the application . Most probably such appointments at such level are made to manzoor e nazar people who usually don't object . Another point of consideration is what is illegal, collecting application and forwarding it or issuing the visa

Its circumstantial, if you have just stumbled upon such an application means you are not under pressure immediately, so you would follow the rules and refuse. The pressure will start mounting later and then you can save your skin in the court by citing political pressure

I understand it puts a burden upon your soul if you issue visa to a criminal. But that's how it is, you can't always be a robin hood . People will pay for their mistakes of putting bad politicians in power
