This G.O affects young doctors by denying thier chance for Govt service, as there will be no recruitment for 5 years
There are 1500 Senior Civil Surgeons,Civil Surgeons going to retire on 2007.So even the newly qualified Doctors will get their oppurtunity to become Asst Surgeons and serve the public.
Vacancy is not an issue. Already there are enough vacancies.
But govt post only few people. that is problem. if 1500 senior civil surgeons retire let the contract doctors be posted at that time
