Hi @Amit Dey1,

You can easily achieve using Catalog UI policy.

Condition as -

select_box_variable ISONEOF select all values -- (except - None)

UI policy actions - 

cat_variable_name -->  Mandatory ---> True

OR 

Try this updated scripts - 

if (newValue == "") {
g_form.setMandatory("cat_variable_name", false);
}
if (newValue == "value1" || newValue == "value2" || newValue == "value3"  ) {
g_form.setMandatory("cat_variable_name", true);
}
