Greetings aspirant!

It will depend on your skills and qualification. It isn't necessary but then every professor is given some responsibility other than just teaching. Professor do take positions of responsibility such as department head, coordinator for college societies, nss, ncc, etc.
So it is more kind of a voluntary thing and not compulsory one. Also one should check the eligibility criteria of the college in which he/she wants to apply as professor as different colleges have different requirements, specially privates colleges.

Hope you find it helpful.
Thankyou!
