July 14, 2025

The Punjab government has decided to hire 100 retired medical specialists as consultants through walk-in interviews in district hospitals, sub-divisional hospitals and community health centres (CHCs).

- Harpreet Bajwa @Chandigarh

According to sources, the decision has been made in response to the severe shortage of medical specialists in government hospitals across the state. Approximately 47% posts of sanctioned specialists are lying vacant across the state, they added. Out of 2,098 sanctioned specialist posts, 990 remain vacant. Additionally, there are vacancies among general medical officers. Around 1,962 posts are yet to be filled out of the 3,847 posts.

Prime Minister Modi’s patriotic appeal for Swadeshi Bharat for Viksit Bharat is a wake-up call for those dreaming elsewhere and living in Bharat. Modi’s “Garv Se Kaho Yeh Swadeshi Hai” is a proud roar of a tiger economy that is experiencing the second coming of its first leadership position in the global comity of nations. The re-imagination of India towards Viksit Bharat @ 2047 is a multidimensional policy prescription that cuts across all socioeconomic growth sectors like public infrastructure, defence, manufacturing, healthcare, education, Agriculture, etc. With active public and private participation in various economic spheres spurring growth, the push for alternate models of engagement with social sectors like education and healthcare cannot come at a time more appropriate than now.
