Thank You Sir.
I want confirm before further action.

Are Government Employee are allowed to take Revenge within or Outside the Organisation?

You could better have discussed your personal problem, if that exists in reality, instead of asking question with the intention to take revenge from some adversary in the organization. For that, you may better go through the conduct & discipline rules of the concerned public sector organization, which can be different from the rules meant for the Government employees.
