In June, the Telangana health department issued a recruitment notification for 607 assistant professor posts under the Directorate of Medical Education (DME). The recruitment drive is being carried out through the Medical and Health Services Recruitment Board (MHSRB).
According to a report in The Hindu, health officials said that in addition to these 607 positions, approval has been granted for the recruitment of 714 more assistant professors. A separate notification for these posts will be released shortly.
The announcement comes in the wake of the recent National Medical Commission (NMC) show-cause notice that flagged faculty shortage in 26 out of the 34 government medical colleges across the State.
