Manipur Cabinet approves teaching posts for new state medical college

IMPHAL, Jan 20: The Manipur government is all prepared to set rolling the process of launching a state medical college by upgrading the Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital at Porompat, Imphal East. The institute, after the upgrade, would be known as Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences, JNIMS.

A Cabinet meeting today fixed the number of teaching staff of the institute at 13 professors, 12 associate professors and 23 assistant professors (lecturers) in its launch year, which would be increased as per needs in subsequent years.

Today’s Cabinet also discussed the broad frame of the terms and conditions of employment as well as salaries and emoluments of the teaching staff to be recruited. In particular, three conditions and requirements were agreed upon. First, the discussion revolved around whether the recruitments were to be against regular posts or on contract basis.

It was unanimously decided that for the time being the recruitments would be on contract basis for a two year term, extendable by a term of similar duration until the incumbent attained the age of 65 years.

Second, it was also decided that if the service of retired medical professionals were to be utilized, the salary of the person concerned would be the net after deduction of his or her pension amount from the salary fixed for the post.

Third, if the recruit is somebody already in the state government health service, or else of any other state government, his or her current salary at the time of recruitment would be protected and he or she would get the same pay scale as enjoyed in the previous job.
