NHPC hires 2 medical officers on fixed tenure in J&K
The Story in Brief
NHPC Limited, a government Navratna enterprise, is recruiting two Medical Officers on a fixed tenure basis of three years at a consolidated monthly pay of Rs 1,00,000. One post is for the Kishanganga Power Station at Gurez, Bandipora, and the other for Sawalkote HEP at Tanger, Ramban, both in Jammu and Kashmir.
Applicants must email their forms to NHPC by 18 November 2026. These unable to email may report directly for the Personal Interview on 19 November 2026 at NHPC's Regional Office in Jammu. Candidates need an MBBS degree, valid MCI or state medical council registration, and two years of post-internship experience as a doctor in a government or reputed hospital. The maximum age is 35 years as of the interview date.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The two medical officer positions are for remote hydropower stations in Jammu and Kashmir, locations where attracting permanent staff is typically difficult. The fixed consolidated pay of Rs 1,00,000 a month, without the pension or grade increments of a regular post, reflects a short-term employment strategy. Candidates who cannot email their application may appear directly at the interview on 19 November, an unusual provision that suggests NHPC expects a limited applicant pool. The contract can extend up to five years, but the lack of age relaxation or qualifying mark concessions for any category, including government norms for reserved groups, is a notable restriction that may narrow eligibility. The key uncertainty is how many candidates will apply for each location, since separate merit lists will be drawn up and NHPC can alter the vacancy count.
