Sukma NHM Multi-Post Recruitment 2026: Overview

The Office of the Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO), Sukma is filling contractual posts under the National Health Mission (NHM) in Sukma district of Chhattisgarh. The posts were approved in the district's Record of Proceedings (ROP) for 2026-27 and are being filled under the NHM Human Resource Policy 2018. Selection is by walk-in interview: you turn up with your filled form on the day fixed for your post, and there is no online application.

The drive covers nurses, doctors, therapists, lab staff, office assistants and support staff across programmes such as NCD, IDSP, NPPCD, the Nutrition Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) and the Urban Health and Wellness Centres (UHWC). Most posts are reserved for Scheduled Tribe candidates under Sukma's district reservation roster, and Chhattisgarh residence is compulsory for every post.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Domicile: You must be a resident of Chhattisgarh and attach a residence certificate from a competent authority.
• Caste certificates: SC, ST and OBC candidates need a permanent caste certificate of Chhattisgarh; a temporary certificate makes you ineligible.
• Contract term: All appointments are temporary and non-transferable until 31 March 2027, extendable each year if your performance review is satisfactory. A regular recruitment to the same post ends the contract automatically.
• Pay: You get a fixed monthly honorarium with no other allowance, and the state health society may revise the amount.
• Leaving the job: Either side can end the contract with one month's notice or one month's pay.
• Disability posts: For the 2nd ANM, Nursing Officer (NHM) and Community Health Officer posts, the disability-reserved seats are only for candidates with one-leg (OL) disability of 40% or more.
• Separate forms: If you want more than one post, submit a separate application for each.
• Experience marks: Only experience from government or semi-government bodies counts, with the appointment order attached; voluntary or unpaid work earns no marks.
• Mitanin benefit: Mitanins who passed the ANM course by 31 December 2017 get experience credit for the 2nd ANM post.
• Living at the posting: You must live at the headquarters of your posting place after joining.
• Reservation rules: Reservation follows the Chhattisgarh Reservation Act, 2012 and is subject to the Supreme Court's final order in SLP(C) No. 19668/2022; women's reservation is horizontal.
• Waiting list: A category-wise waiting list stays valid for one year or until the next recruitment.
• Debarred candidates: Anyone earlier removed from NHM or a government body for indiscipline, financial irregularity or misconduct cannot be selected.
• No travel allowance: You bear your own travel and stay costs for the walk-in.
