CM Punjab Career Opportunity 2026 – Consultants & Specialists Jobs in THQs & DHQs
The Health & Population Department, Government of the Punjab, has announced a golden career opportunity for qualified and experienced medical professionals across Punjab. Under the CM Punjab Initiatives, the department is inviting applications for Consultants and Specialists to serve in Tehsil Headquarters Hospitals (THQs) and District Headquarters Hospitals (DHQs) across the province. This recruitment drive reflects the Punjab government’s commitment to strengthening the public healthcare system at the grassroots level by placing highly skilled professionals in hospitals that serve millions of citizens daily.
Why This Initiative Matters
THQs and DHQs are the backbone of Punjab’s public health infrastructure. These hospitals serve hundreds of thousands of patients from rural and semi-urban areas who often cannot afford private healthcare. Despite their importance, these hospitals have historically struggled with a shortage of qualified specialists. The CM Punjab Initiative directly addresses this gap by offering a Special Pay Package to attract top-tier medical talent to these critical facilities. This is a landmark step toward bringing quality healthcare closer to the common citizen of Punjab.
