The National Health Mission (NHM) Uttar Pradesh has initiated the recruitment process for the post of Ayush Medical Officers, with a total of 16 vacancies announced. The selection will be carried out through a merit-based process, and interested and eligible candidates are required to submit their applications in offline mode only.
Under the Ayush department, which covers systems of alternative medicine including Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy, these medical officer positions play a critical role in delivering healthcare services across both urban and rural areas of the state. The Uttar Pradesh government has been actively working to strengthen its public health infrastructure by inducting qualified practitioners under the NHM framework on contractual terms.
Eligibility criteria typically require candidates to hold a recognized degree or postgraduate qualification in the relevant Ayush discipline from an institution approved by the concerned statutory council. Candidates who have also completed the mandatory internship, where applicable, and are registered with the State Ayush Council or the Central Council of Indian Medicine are generally considered eligible to apply. Candidates belonging to reserved categories may be entitled to relaxation in age and eligibility requirements as per the Uttar Pradesh government's prevailing reservation policy.
The application form is to be submitted offline, meaning candidates must collect the prescribed application form from the designated NHM Uttar Pradesh office or download and print it from the official website, fill it out completely, attach all mandatory documents, and physically deliver or post it to the address specified in the recruitment notification within the given deadline.
While the detailed vacancy-wise distribution, exact date of the interview or document verification process, and the complete list of required documents have not been fully disseminated yet, the recruiting authority is expected to release the full advisory shortly. Candidates are advised to monitor the official NHM Uttar Pradesh portal for further updates regarding the admit card, selection procedure, and result announcement.
