The North Eastern Institute of Ayurveda & Homoeopathy (NEIAH), an autonomous body under the Ministry of AYUSH, is hiring six contract staff in Mawdiangdiang, Shillong: a Biostatistician, four Residential Medical Officers (Ayurveda) and a Consultant (Pharmacy).
The pay is a consolidated ₹60,000 to ₹1,00,000 a month, depending on the post. All three roles ask for years of experience, so this isn’t a fresher recruitment. You apply on paper, by Speed Post, Registered Post or the institute’s drop box, and the last date is 14 November 2026.
