The LG has been pitching for regularisation of services of those who have been engaged by the Delhi government on ad hoc basis and effecting appointments on a permanent basis as per law, the officials said.
The Department of Health and Family Welfare sought regularisation of these 18 Civil Assistant Surgeons (Dental).
Subsequent to the LG's directions in March 2023 to amend Recruitment Rules to ensure regularisation of posts and fresh appointments on a regular basis, the Delhi Health Services had notified the DHS (Dental) Rules, 2022 on May 6 this year.
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) assessed the suitability of these doctors working on ad hoc basis for more than a decade for appointment on a regular basis and found them to be fit for the same.
Similarly, posts of nine stenographers (Group 'C'), working in the WCD Department for implementation of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2005, have been made permanent with the LG's approval. These stenographers, appointed on temporary posts since 2005, had been discharging duties of a permanent nature.
