The Punjab Public Service Commission has announced 28 Veterinary Officer posts in the Extension Wing (Animal Health Cadre) of the Livestock & Dairy Development Department, through Advertisement No. 10/2026, Case No. 03-RK/2026, published in newspapers on 17 September 2026. This is a BS-17 post on a 5-year contract basis — one of the longer contract terms in this advertisement — and covers a cluster of related designations: Veterinary Officer (Health), (Dairy), (Research), (PVTV/ABAD), (Production), and Livestock Production Officer. All fall under the same case number and eligibility criteria. Online applications close 5 October 2026.

  • In-service candidates must obtain or apply for NOC/DPC from their department and provide it at interview if called.
  • Your PVMC registration certificate must be produced at interview if called — this is separate from, and in addition to, meeting the registration deadline above.
  • Degree results must be shown as marks obtained/total marks or a percentage certificate from the competent authority — CGPA is not accepted.

Why This Matters

With 28 posts on a 5-year contract, this is one of the more substantial DVM-holder opportunities to come out of PPSC this year, spanning multiple specialization tracks (health, dairy, research, production) under one recruitment case. If you're a DVM graduate with active or renewable PVMC registration, this is worth applying to well ahead of the 5 October deadline — especially given the registration-renewal proof requirement.
