You say that the college has not framed any service rules. It is very hard to believe.

You also say that they have issued a show cause notice to you stating that you have violated the "service rules & administave rules of the college".

First ask them for a copy of the rules and try to see whether there is any prohibition for joining a political party. Then only one can answer your query.
