Murali says
Are Doctors who Joined during the year 2009 via Employment Exchange as Temporary Assitant Surgeons are eligible for this exam ?
TargetPG says
Please clarify this (your eligibility) from DPH (and not from your DDHS, JDHS, Dean, DMS, DME)
Don’t get mislead by the words “and who are in service as on 07-08-2009”
It means that IN ADDITION TO HAVING MET Other criteria, you should ALSO Be on Service. It does NOT give eligibility to all who are on service as on 07-08-2009
Also remember that last time, in Special TNPSC 2007, there was a similar clause and many people interpreted it wrongly and were satisfied when their applications were forwarded by DDHS / JDHS. But ultimately, they did not get hall tickets
rajaganesh says
