Delhi HC orders urgent paramedical staff recruitment, calls it crucial for health management

The Delhi High Court has directed the city government to speed up the recruitment of nursing officers, paramedical staff, and specialist doctors to strengthen healthcare services in the capital. The court said appointments must be made immediately after results are declared, without waiting for the completion of recruitment for other posts.

The court was reviewing status reports showing that over 1,507 nursing officers and 44 posts of paramedical staff have already been selected, with postings underway, while 770 of the paramedical positions have been advertised and the examination process for recruitment of the same is under process.

Among them, some posts, such as audiometric assistants, assistant security officers, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists, had their advertisements cancelled. As a result, the court ordered these to be reissued and asked the government to provide the reasons for the cancellation of these posts.
