Punjab HC Seeks Explanation for Non-Publication of Health Worker Recruitment Results
The Punjab and Haryana High Court has directed the Punjab Government to explain why the results of the Multipurpose Health Worker (Female) recruitment exam were not published, noting this omission could undermine the selection process. The court considered petitions alleging that reserved-category candidates with higher marks than the general category cut-off were not properly considered. Punjab's Health Services Director acknowledged no merit list was released, prompting the court to seek a detailed state response.
