KOCHI: The Kerala High Court on Thursday issued a notice to the state government on a petition against gender discrimination in recruitments. Justice K Surendra Mohan passed the order while considering a petition filed by V S Dhanya, Palakkad, challenging the government’s decision to deny her a job with the Kerala State Beverages Corporation (BEVCO).    The state and the corporation have been directed to file an affidavit within two weeks. The petitioner was included in the rank-list for the post of an Assistant Grade-1, however, the state had kept her out despite being eligible for the post, pointing out that female applicants will not not be fit for the job.   The petitioner said the government violated the constitutional provision by denying a job on the basis of gender.
