Not Necessary To Gain Journalism Experience From Govt Company For Appointment As Class II Assistant Director Of Info At State's I&B Dept: Gujarat HC Case Title: Darshan Bipinbhai Trivedi Versus State Of Gujarat Case Citation: 2022 LiveLaw (Guj) 188 The Gujarat High Court has made it clear that the Assistant Director of Information (Journalism) Class II Recruitment Rules, 2015 nowhere stipulate that Journalism experience necessarily has to be from a government organization for appointment to the post of Assistant Director of Information (Journalism) Class II. "Nowhere does Recruitment Rule stipulate that it has to be in only a government or local body or a government undertaking board or the Corporation or a Company. This would amount to restrictive reading of the Rule and, therefore, it cannot be said that the respondent No.3 does not possess the requisite experience," Justice Biren Vaishnav observed. Gujarat High Court Orders Regularization Of Multi-Purpose Health Workers Engaged In Contractual Service Case Title: Mehulkumar Ramanlal Katpara Versus State Of Gujarat Case Citation: 2022 LiveLaw (Guj) 189 Ensuring that no discrimination is borne by Multi-Purpose Health Workers (Male), the High Court held that they shall be entitled to regular pay scale from their original date of appointment and consequential benefits which were paid to similarly situated employees way back in the year 2011 and 2016. Justice Biren Vaishnav referred to previous orders of the High Court by wherein Multi-Purpose Health Workers were regularised while observing: "Multi Purpose Health Worker (Male) who have worked continuously for so many years cannot be discriminated by taking one excuse or the other.

This is particularly so, when clear cut finding has been recorded by co-ordinate Bench of this Court in Special Civil Application No.6289 of 2011 and respondents were party in these proceedings."
