Guwahati: Two employees at the Dhemaji office of the Deputy Commissioner had been fired, officials informed on Friday.
The two officers were ordered to be fired by the Gauhati High Court on grounds that they had allegedly been hired unfairly.
As per reports, the two officers began working for the office in 2008. Later, it was discovered that they had done so illegally.
They were identified as Mouchumi Deka and Bornali Dutta Changmai.
Meanwhile, the court also mandated that a re-examination be performed to fill the positions left vacant by the two corrupt officials.
Informing about the development, an official said, “A candidate named Manashi Hazarika had filed a writ petition against the appointment given in 2008. The high court had given its order in favour of the complainant in 2016 and ordered the removal of the two officials.”
He said, “The officials had then challenged the court’s order and filed a writ petition of their own. However, the high court has dismissed it.”
“The court observed that the list that was released informing of the candidates selected for the position in 2008, did not contain their names,” added the official.
