You need to check relevant rules of the jobs for which you would be applying. There is no general prohibition

Re: Legal advice

Since you have been convicted under a criminal case for dowry death and been sentenced to 10 + 1 year RI, you would require to check the rules and regulations of any particular job. As far as all Govt. Jobs are concerned, you are not prohibited as you got a permanent bail, but still first check the rules. Secondly, while applying for any such job you might require to furnish the details of that criminal case and a copy of Permanent Bail Orders passed in your favor.
