Uttarakhand CM Dhami writes to newly recruited govt employees, extends best wishes
Dehradun, May 18
Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has digitally written to employees who were selected for government service over the past four years, extending his best wishes for their bright future.
According to the CMO, in the letter, the Chief Minister said that the people of Uttarakhand entrusted him with the responsibility of serving as Chief Minister for a second term in 2022. In line with the spirit of this mandate, the state government launched a large-scale recruitment drive from the very first day of assuming office to address unemployment and fill vacant posts in government departments. As a result, more than 30,000 youths have been appointed to government services over the past four years, and the recruitment campaign is continuing.
Dhami further stated that young candidates are now securing government jobs purely on the basis of their talent and hard work.
"Along with the dedication and capability of the youth, the state government's strict anti-cheating law and a fair, transparent, and honest recruitment process have ensured that deserving candidates receive proper recognition and opportunities," Dhami stated.
The Chief Minister also said that being selected as a government employee of Uttarakhand is a matter of great pride not only for the selected candidates and their families, but also for the state government.
He urged the newly appointed employees to discharge their duties with honesty, integrity, and impartiality, and to remain committed to public service with human values at the forefront. On the occasion, the Chief Minister also spoke to several selected youths over the phone and encouraged them to contribute enthusiastically towards public service.
Earlier, Uttarakhand Chief Minister on Sunday laid the foundation stone for a 150-meter span CC bridge over the Sisauna River, to be constructed at a cost of approximately Rs 11.41 crore, connecting Shaktifarm with the SIDCUL area in Sitarganj.
On the occasion, the Chief Minister said that the construction of this important bridge would directly benefit nearly 50,000 people in the region and reduce the distance to SIDCUL Sitarganj and the Sisouna Block Office by around 9 kilometres.

I appreciate the focus on transparency and the anti-cheating law. So many talented youth lose opportunities due to corruption in recruitment. If Dhami ji can genuinely make the process fair, that would be a game-changer for Uttarakhand. But actions speak louder than words – let's see if these 30,000 selections were truly merit-based.
Finally some good news for job seekers! 😊 My cousin got selected in the same drive and he says the whole process was smooth and transparent. No bribes, no recommendations – just hard work and preparation. That's the kind of change we need across India. Kudos to the Uttarakhand government!
Interesting approach – a personal letter from the CM to new employees feels very human. In many states, government recruitment is just a number. Here, Dhami is making it personal. The bridge project also sounds practical; 9 km distance reduction is huge for daily commuters. Good governance in action!
I'm cautiously optimistic. While 30,000 jobs sounds impressive, we must ask: are these new positions or just filling existing vacancies? And what about the thousands of youth who still need jobs? The anti-cheating law is welcome, but real change requires more than letters – we need sustained economic growth and private sector jobs too. Let's wait and watch. 🧐
Waah Dhami sahab! 👏 Uttarakhand is setting an example for other states. Transparent recruitment + infrastructure development
