Overview

DHS Thanjavur Dental Surgeon & Health Inspector Grade II Recruitment 2026 (18 Posts), Apply Offline by 30 September 2026 in Tamil Nadu. District Health Society Thanjavur (DHS Thanjavur) has released a recruitment notification for 18 contractual posts, comprising 1 Dental Surgeon and 17 Health Inspector Grade II positions. This DHS Thanjavur government job 2026 opportunity is for candidates holding a BDS/MDS dental qualification, or a 12th pass with specific health-worker training, depending on the post. Eligible candidates who meet the post-specific qualification below can apply offline through the official website before the closing date. District Health Societies operate under the National Health Mission framework, and this notification bundles two very different roles under one advertisement: a Dental Surgeon providing direct clinical dental care, and Health Inspector Grade II staff supporting broader public health inspection, sanitation, and disease-surveillance duties at the district level. The two posts sit at opposite ends of the qualification spectrum — a full dental degree versus a 12th-pass-plus-vocational-training route — which is a common pattern in district health recruitment where a single administrative notification covers whatever specialist and support vacancies happen to be open across the district's health institutions at that time, rather than posts sharing a common qualification tier. Selected candidates will support public health functions across Thanjavur district, with the Dental Surgeon providing dental care and the Health Inspector Grade II staff handling multipurpose public health inspection and sanitation duties. The DHS Thanjavur 2026 notification does not describe a detailed selection process; candidates should refer to the official notification PDF for the exact process followed. The monthly remuneration for DHS Thanjavur 2026 is ₹40,000 on a contractual basis. The DHS Thanjavur 2026 offline application form is available at thanjavur.nic.in. The last date to apply for this recruitment is 30 September 2026. No application fee has been mentioned in the notification for any category. Candidates must read the complete official DHS Thanjavur notification PDF before applying, since the notification's eligibility section does not clearly separate qualification requirements by post — candidates should independently confirm which specific requirements apply to the Dental Surgeon versus the Health Inspector Grade II post before applying.
