As thousands of medical aspirants look forward to the RIMS healthcare staff recruitment process under the Pradhan Mantri Rozgar Yojana 2023 with the plan to fill up as many as 435 posts lying vacant, official sources have said that the selection of staff will be done on merit basis and in a transparent manner.
“Following the directive given by the ministry, the institute has now started the recruitment process… Selection of the staff will be done on merit basis and in a transparent manner, RIMS director Dr M Priyosakhi told media persons in Imphal on March 25.
It may be noted that the government’s move to recruit healthcare professional to fill up the 435 vacant posts comes after a long lapse of seven to eight years, as RIMS has not held any sort of permanent post recruitment since 2016.
Stressing on clean recruitment process and saying that “Development in RIMS is development for Manipur”, the director sought the support of the public and the aspirant candidates to ensure a free and fair recruitment process.
Such filling of the vacant posts will be a big help in the smooth functioning of the institute, she added.
Echoing the same hope, medical superintendent of RIMS, N Sanjib, said: “The lack of manpower in the institute due to numerous vacant posts was a big hindrance in strengthening numbers of beds in ICU, wards and other departments.
Further expressing the hope that the recruitment will be carried out according to the procedures and the recruitment will aid in smooth functioning of the institute, Dr Sanjib said that such recruitment process under the Rozgar Scheme will help in filling up the vacant posts in a steady manner.
The Non-Medical Staff Association and Tribal Staff Welfare of RIMS representatives lauded the effort of the new director Dr M Priyosakhi for her initiative by providing 100 per cent DA to the contractual staffs and overall welfare of the institute.
