In a move aimed at ensuring maximum participation from eligible candidates, the Haryana Health Department has officially extended the application deadline for the recruitment of 450 Medical Officers (HCMS Class-II). This decision provides a crucial window for doctors who were unable to complete their registrations within the initial timeframe.
The Recruitment Drive The recruitment process is part of the state government’s initiative to strengthen the healthcare infrastructure, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas.
-
Vacancies: The 450 posts include both general and specialized categories to fill gaps in Community Health Centres (CHCs) and Civil Hospitals across the state.
-
The Extension: The previous closing date for online applications has been pushed forward to allow more time for candidates to upload necessary documentation and fulfill the eligibility criteria.
-
Reason for Extension: Official sources indicate that the extension was granted following representations from medical aspirants regarding technical glitches on the registration portal and delays in obtaining certain certification.
Eligibility and Selection Candidates must possess an MBBS degree from a recognized university and be registered with the Haryana Medical Council or the Medical Council of India. The selection process involves a written examination followed by a document verification phase. The department has emphasized that there will be no further extensions, urging candidates to complete the process at the earliest to avoid last-minute technical traffic.
This recruitment drive is expected to significantly reduce the workload on existing medical staff and improve the doctor-to-patient ratio in the state. Prospective candidates can visit the official website of the Health Department to check the revised schedule and submit their applications.
