Who this page is for

This page collects every live public-sector opening on Anmaya for AYUSH doctors: medical officer posts under state AYUSH departments, National Health Mission and National AYUSH Mission contracts, CGHS and ESIC dispensaries, the central research councils and the Ministry of AYUSH's institutions. It covers all five degrees — BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, BNYS and BSMS — and each card says which qualification the notice names, where it names one. Most government notices reach Anmaya as community posts: a verified member sees a recruitment notice and shares it here, with provenance, so colleagues do not depend on a WhatsApp forward. A smaller number come from claim-verified institutions. Both are listed together, newest first.

Where government AYUSH posts come from

State AYUSH departments (or Departments of Indian Medicine and Homoeopathy) are the largest employer, appointing medical officers to AYUSH wings in district hospitals, community health centres and primary health centres, usually through the state public service commission or a state recruitment board. The National AYUSH Mission funds contractual medical officer and yoga-wellness posts in every state; recruitment is run by the state mission society, often as walk-in drives. The National Health Mission employs AYUSH medical officers in co-located AYUSH facilities and in school and adolescent health programmes. CGHS and ESIC run Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Unani, Siddha and Yoga dispensaries in the larger cities and recruit through the UPSC, SSC or their own notices. The research councils — CCRAS, CCRH, CCRUM, CCRS and CCRYN — appoint research officers and senior research fellows. Central and state universities and the national institutes (such as the National Institute of Ayurveda, the National Institute of Homoeopathy and the National Institute of Siddha) recruit teaching and clinical staff on UGC and ministry scales.

Typical pay

Government pay is on published scales, so it varies by state and by whether the post is regular or contractual rather than by negotiation. Contractual medical officer posts under the National AYUSH Mission and NHM commonly pay ₹40,000 to ₹70,000 a month depending on the state; regular state medical officer posts are on Level 10 of the state pay matrix or its equivalent, roughly ₹56,000 upward with allowances. CGHS and ESIC medical officers are on central scales. Research officer posts at the councils follow council scales with a research allowance. The notice always states the pay; if a post shared here does not, follow the link to the original notice before applying.

How to read a notice

A government notice carries five things the community post may summarise: the post title and number of vacancies, the essential qualification (the degree and council registration), the age limit and relaxations, the mode of application (online portal, walk-in, or post) and the last date. The post on Anmaya shows the member's summary and, usually, the notice as an image or PDF. Apply through the route the notice specifies — never through a third party — and keep the receipt.

Registration

Every government clinical post requires registration with the relevant council — NCISM for Ayurveda, Unani and Siddha, NCH for Homoeopathy, the state board for Naturopathy and Yoga — and most require the state registration specifically. Notices state which. The Anmaya Verified mark on a profile means an ops reviewer has checked that credential against the council record.

How Anmaya fits in

Anmaya does not run government recruitment. What it does is collect the notices in one place, with the name of the member who shared each one, reviewed before publishing and expiring after thirty days so the list stays current. Employer posts from claim-verified institutions — a government college or hospital with a claimed organisation page — carry an Apply button and go through Anmaya. If you are an AYUSH doctor preparing for government recruitment and have not joined yet, a free verified profile puts you on the list the weekly jobs email goes to.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know a government notice shared here is genuine?
Open the notice attached to the post and check it against the department's or recruitment board's own website before applying. Community posts are reviewed before publishing and carry the sharing member's name, but Anmaya does not issue the notice and cannot vouch for it the way a department can.
Are National AYUSH Mission jobs permanent?
No. NAM posts are contractual, renewed annually against the state's programme implementation plan. They are a common route into AYUSH public service and experience in them often counts towards regular recruitment.
What is the age limit for AYUSH medical officer posts?
It varies by state and by post, typically 18 to 35 or 40 with relaxations for reserved categories and for contract service already rendered. The notice is the authority; the post here is a summary.
Can a BNYS graduate apply for government posts?
Yes, for yoga-and-naturopathy specific posts — NAM wellness centre consultants, yoga instructors and medical officers in states that recognise BNYS — and for the Ministry of AYUSH's yoga institutions. Medical officer (Ayurveda/Homoeopathy/Unani/Siddha) posts require the matching degree.
Why are so many government posts shared by members rather than by the employer?
Because departments publish notices, not job adverts, and rarely claim a page on a professional network. Members who see the notice first share it so colleagues do not miss the last date; the Community mark on the post says exactly that.
