The Odisha Medical Services Association (OMSA) in a letter to the Director of Health Services has requested to take immediate steps for according due weightage to Adhoc Doctors for recruitment of Assistant Surgeons through the Odisha State Public Service Commission (OPSC).
OMSA president Nirakar Bhatta said that a similar procedure had been adopted during recruitment of Veterinary Assistant Surgeons during 2014. Notably, the OPSC has already conducted a written examination for recruitment of Assistant Surgeons of the OMHS cadre on November 18 last year, and results of the examination are likely to be published soon.
