“Our employment woes have not been addressed since 2008 when the Government last officially advertised posts for inducement of dental surgeons in the Health Department. Since then, over 7,000 dental surgeons are hopeless and jobless. The reason for this unemployment clearly follows a mismatch between supply and demand in the health sector,” the protesting surgeons told news agency Kashmir News Trust.

The unemployed dental surgeons said that they gave representation to the authorities’ time to time but nothing has been done to date for their welfare.

They demanded the Government to increase job avenues and opportunities for dental surgeons in rural areas as per the intake capacity with the help of various schemes under NRHM like NOHP RBSK, Ayushman Bharat and School Dental Health Program, increase sanctioned posts and new plans for dental graduates in PHCs, NTPHCs, CHCs and Sub-centres, and start a public-private partnership with help of EDI to grow entrepreneurship and to start a good reputed dental clinic in Jammu and Kashmir.
