To overcome shortage of medical staff, the Punjab cabinet, chaired by
Chief Minister Amarinder Singh, on Monday decided that MBBS doctors will
now get their full salaries, including all allowances, during probation
too.
With this, the state government has decided to do away with
the condition of basic pay only for newly-appointed medical officers in
the Health and Family Welfare Department.
This is in line with
the practice already being followed in several other categories like
Punjab Civil Services (Judicial Branch), an official spokesperson told
IANS.
The Punjab Vidhan Sabha Assurance Committee had also taken
serious note of the shortage of doctors and directed the government to
fill the vacant posts at the earliest.
In the light of this, the
proposal for the payment of full salary to the newly appointed MBBS
doctors, equal to the pay being given to the specialist doctors, was put
up before the Chief Minister after approval by the Health Minister,
said the spokesperson.
In another decision, the cabinet approved
the Punjab Health and Family Welfare, Technical (Group-B) Service Rules
-- 2018 to facilitate recruitment and promotions of various technical
group "B" vacant posts.
These rules would also open more promotional channels for the paramedical and technical staff.
