Boradcast Intent for Adding media file to the gallery

Is this intent necessary for adding the image file to the gallery?

I know it would be a good practice, but since we are using the default/third-party camera app for clicking the image, wouldn't that camera app itself send the broadcast intent to scan the media files.Is that why our images are present in both 'All photos' and 'Ribbit' folders perhaps?
