In a major boost to employment and healthcare infrastructure, the Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab government has approved the recruitment of 1,568 nurses under its flagship ‘Mission Rozgar’ initiative. The decision brings good news for thousands of young aspirants, especially qualified women candidates, who are seeking government jobs in the health sector.
Bhagwant Mann: Big Employment Push for Youth
According to official sources, the recruitment process for 1,568 nursing posts will begin soon. The move is aimed at providing stable government employment to deserving candidates while simultaneously strengthening the state’s public healthcare system. The approval reflects the government’s commitment to generating jobs through transparent and merit-based recruitment.
Strengthening Punjab’s Public Healthcare System
The large-scale recruitment of nurses is expected to significantly improve healthcare delivery in government hospitals, community health centres and primary health facilities across Punjab. With additional trained staff, patient care, emergency services and overall efficiency of the health system are likely to see major improvements.
Opportunity for Skilled Women Candidates
The Punjab government highlighted that this recruitment drive will open doors for qualified daughters of the state, offering them respectable and secure government employment. Officials said empowering skilled women through public-sector jobs remains a key focus of the Mann government’s employment policy.
Mission Rozgar in Action
Under Mission Rozgar, the Punjab government has been consistently approving vacancies across departments to tackle unemployment and provide youth with meaningful opportunities. The nursing recruitment is being seen as a crucial step that combines job creation with public welfare.
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has repeatedly stated that employment generation and robust healthcare are central to Punjab’s development agenda. The upcoming recruitment drive, officials said, reflects the government’s resolve to deliver on both fronts.
