🏛️ Haryana Health Department Service Cadre & Recruitment Roadmap

The sanction of 1,085 Pharmacy Officer positions represents Haryana’s largest health department expansion in over a decade. Designated under Haryana 7th CPC Functional Pay Level FPL-6A (pay scale of ₹39,900 to ₹1,26,600), selected pharmacy officers will oversee hospital drug dispensaries, clinical cold-chain logistics, and community healthcare drug inventory across Civil Hospitals, Community Health Centres (CHCs), and Primary Health Centres (PHCs).

The selection framework follows the Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) Group-C technical recruitment protocol. Eligible candidates must have cleared the Haryana Common Eligibility Test (CET) technical cutoff. The main written examination consists of 100 objective questions (97.5 marks), with 70% weightage given to core pharmaceutical sciences and 30% weightage allocated to General Awareness, Reasoning, Mathematics, Science, and Haryana General Knowledge.

A key eligibility requirement is mandatory registration with the Haryana State Pharmacy Council (HSPC). Candidates registered with other state pharmacy councils (such as Delhi, UP, or Rajasthan) must complete the formal migration and Non-Objection Certificate (NOC) transfer process through the HSPC portal (hspc.in) before appointment orders are issued.

Preparation should prioritize clinical pharmacology, hospital administration, and forensic pharmacy. With zero negative marking in the HSSC examination, accuracy and comprehensive subject coverage across all 5 syllabus modules will be the decisive factor in securing a high merit rank.
