The proposal for engagement of retired employees against existing vacancies was moved by the Health and Family Welfare Department in pursuance of directions of CM, in the meeting convened under the Chief Minister’s chairmanship on 16 August 2017. The minutes of that meeting were also issued by the CM’s office. Therefore, it is surprising that the CM had raised questions regarding filling up of vacant posts with retired personnel, the L-G emphasized.
The Lt Governor further stated in his letter that the engagement of retired personnel was purely an interim measure to meet the shortages. Regular recruitment alone was a sustainable solution for provision of quality healthcare services to residents of Delhi. The vacancies in the government hospitals have been pending for a long time and he had already got an action plan prepared for that not only by the Health Department but also by Delhi government.
