Purba Bardhaman NHM Vacancy 2026: Post-wise and Category-wise
The seat split is different for each post, so look at your own post only. Medical Officer-AYUSH has 6 seats, of which 5 are marked Female and 1 is UR (Male). The Pharmacist post is much bigger, with 41 places in all.
| Post | Category | Vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Medical Officer-AYUSH (MHT) | UR (Male) | 1 |
| Medical Officer-AYUSH (MHT) | UR (Female) | 2 |
| Medical Officer-AYUSH (MHT) | EWS (E.C) (Female) | 1 |
| Medical Officer-AYUSH (MHT) | SC (Female) | 1 |
| Medical Officer-AYUSH (MHT) | ST (Female) | 1 |
| Pharmacist | UR | 14 |
| Pharmacist | UR (EC) | 6 |
| Pharmacist | UR (Meritorious Sportsperson) | 1 |
| Pharmacist | UR (PwBD) | 1 |
| Pharmacist | EWS | 2 |
| Pharmacist | EWS (EC) | 2 |
| Pharmacist | OBC | 2 |
| Pharmacist | OBC (EC) | 1 |
| Pharmacist | SC | 8 |
| Pharmacist | SC (EC) | 2 |
| Pharmacist | ST | 2 |
Medical Officer-AYUSH has no OBC or PwBD seat, and Pharmacist has no Male/Female split. Do not assume a category exists for your post. In particular, if you are a male AYUSH doctor, the table shows only a single UR seat, so your competition is very different from the Pharmacist post, where those places are spread over many categories.

Notice what this means for you. There is nothing to prepare for in the way of a syllabus, because the notice describes selection on academic marks.
