Freeze goes on para-medical staff recruitment

By Our Special Correspondent

CHENNAI, AUG. 20. The Health Minister, Mr. S. Semmalai, today informed the Assembly that the ``freeze'' on recruitment on para- medical staff had been removed.

Intervening in the debate on the State budget, the Minister said the recruitment would begin soon.

The Education Minister, Mr. M. Thambidurai, clarified that the present Government had not fixed afresh the age limit of 35 for recruitment of graduate teachers.

``Only a GO was issued recently to ensure the proper implementation of the age ceiling which had been fixed years ago,'' he said.

However, the government would look into the issue if there were any difficulties, he added.
