Chandigarh, July 21 - In a significant step towards strengthening the civil health service infrastructure of Haryana, 137 newly selected Medical Officers have received appointment letters and have been posted in various districts of the state. These appointment letters have been issued after successful biometric and document verification earlier this year.
Haryana Health and Family Welfare Minister Aarti Singh Rao congratulated the newly appointed doctors. She said that the appointment of qualified and dedicated Medical Officers will not only improve the access to healthcare in both rural and urban areas but will also reduce the burden on the existing Medical Officers. This step reflects our government's commitment to provide timely and quality healthcare services to every citizen.
Aarti Singh Rao said that this recruitment drive is part of the government’s comprehensive plan to fill up long pending vacancies and ensure that no Primary Health Centre, CHC or Civil Hospital functions without the required staff.
Appointment letters have been sent to all Civil Surgeons across the state through email from where the election candidates can get them. These appointments include appointments in District Civil Hospitals of districts like Narnaul, Ambala City, Bhiwani, Sonipat, Jind, Charkhi Dadri, Hisar, Panipat, Karnal, Sirsa, Kurukshetra, Kaithal, Jhajjar, Fatehabad, Yamunanagar etc.
The Minister also appreciated the continuous efforts of the Health Department Haryana to ensure a transparent and efficient appointment process. It is worth mentioning that earlier, appointment letters have been issued to 560 medical officers, out of which 409 have joined the service.
