UP to conduct recruitment for teaching, technical positions in govt medical colleges in 2026

Focussing on proper health services and medical education, the UP government is set to conduct large-scale recruitment for teaching and technical positions in government medical colleges in the new year 2026.

According to a press release, issued by the state’ information department, recruitment will be conducted for the positions of Assistant Professor, Professor, and Lecturer (Pharmacy) in government medical colleges. Approximately 1,200 candidates will receive government jobs for these positions.

This initiative will not only provide employment to youths but will also strengthen the state's health education system, according to the release. Meanwhile, the state government will soon distribute appointment letters to 1,230 nursing officers (male and female) selected by the Public Service Commission, Prayagraj.


In the release, Additional Chief Secretary for Health and Medical Education, Amit Kumar Ghosh, said that Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had earlier directed the department to fill vacant positions so that more youth in the state could obtain government jobs. As part of this initiative, the Medical Education Department has submitted requisitions for the positions of Assistant Professor, Professor, and Lecturer (Pharmacy) in government medical colleges for selection through the Public Service Commission, Prayagraj.

He further said that advertisements for recruitment to these positions will be issued soon. Advertisements will be issued for recruitment to approximately 1,200 positions in government medical colleges, 1,112 Assistant Professor positions, 44 Professor positions, and 11 Lecturer (Pharmacy) positions.

He also added that a major step has been taken towards strengthening the nursing cadre. CM Yogi Adityanath will soon distribute appointment letters to 1,230 nursing officers (both male and female) selected by the Public Service Commission, Prayagraj. This will further strengthen health services in the state's government hospitals and medical colleges.

While medical education was previously limited to a few districts, today the goal of establishing medical colleges in almost every district has been achieved in the state. Ensuring the availability of qualified faculty and trained staff to run new colleges is a priority for the government. This recruitment is a major step in that direction, the release said.
