The Gauhati high court in a hearing on Wednesday dismissed a case related to issuing fake appointments in health department under the Congress regime in the state.

The state Health Department had dismissed a total of 402 fourth grade employees who used forged appointment letters to obtain their jobs during the previous Congress government.

The department sent notices to every district asking the concerned officials to dismiss those employees. The state Health Department has allegedly failed to submit adequate proofs before the court in the matter.

It may be mentioned that the fourth-grade employees had filed PIL at the Gauhati High Court requesting them to be allowed to resume office.
