Heartfelt appreciation to the Health & Medical Education Department and the Hon’ble Health Secretary, Shri M. Raju, IAS, for issuing the Junior Pharmacist posts with D.Pharm and B.Pharm as the prescribed qualifications.

This is a welcome and much-needed step towards ensuring that recruitment to Pharmacist posts remains aligned with the professional qualifications and standards of pharmacy students and graduates.

We sincerely acknowledge and appreciate the efforts of the concerned authorities in upholding transparency, fairness, and professional eligibility in the recruitment process. We hope that the same principles will continue to be upheld in all future recruitments as well.

Thank you for recognizing and safeguarding the rightful professional pathway of pharmacy candidates.

For the first time in history, a PCI Member from Jammu & Kashmir, Hon’ble Shri Sushil Sudan Ji, has spoken the truth by stating that the pharmacy profession in J&K must be streamlined strictly as per PCI norms. He rightly emphasized that there should be no continuation of pseudo-pharmacist courses such as Medical Assistant programs in J&K.
As per the Pharmacy Act, 1948, the eligibility for recruitment and registration as a Pharmacist is strictly limited to holders of D.Pharmacy or B.Pharmacy qualifications. The syllabus for the Pharmacist post must also be framed according to the norms and guidelines of the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), and not the Nursing Council.
However, in the latest JKSSB 2025 notification for the Pharmacist post, although the eligibility criteria correctly follow the PCI Act (D.Pharmacy/B.Pharmacy), the prescribed syllabus is based on the Nursing syllabus. This is completely against PCI norms and undermines the professional identity and statutory framework of the pharmacy profession.
