1,463 health posts in Telangana to be filled through DSC
The Telangana government has announced that the Departmental Selection Committee (DSC) will be filling the 1,463 vacant posts in various health categories that fall under the Telangana Vaidya Vidhan Parishad (TVVP).
The Telangana government has announced that the Departmental Selection Committee (DSC) will be filling the 1,463 vacant posts in various health categories that fall under the Telangana Vaidya Vidhan Parishad (TVVP).
Previously, the vacant posts were filled through the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC).
However, due to the delay in initiating the process of recruitment for the vacant posts through the TSPSC, the decision to involve the Departmental Selection Committee (DSC) was taken.
In May 2017, the state government had approved the filling of vacancies in various categories in Health, Medical and Family Welfare departments.
However, due to the various health initiatives in the past few months, the number of patients visiting State-run health institutions has increased putting pressure on the existing healthcare staff in the hospitals.
The senior doctors stated that doctors needed to be recruited in the vacant posts at the earliest.
According to Health Department officials, the vacant posts will be filled in the coming few months through direct recruitment.
With close to 1,280 vacant posts in several categories falling under health institutions attached to the Telangana Vaidya Vidhan Parishad, the remaining 183 vacant posts consist of medical officers and lecturers from the Department of AYUSH, Telangana.
