Bikaner gets a pragmatic gift by the Rajasthan government this year. Union health minister JP Nadda laid down the foundation of a super specialty hospital worth 150 crores in Bikaner. It’s the city’s first hospital based on advanced healthcare measures. Nadda, who has great hopes for this project claimed that the said hospital will give a new direction to healthcare facilities in the state. The government plans to complete the project by December 2017.
How will Bikaner Super Specialty Hospital come out in Future
The new hospital will accommodate 46 patients in the ICU and 168 patients in the super specialty block. Moreover, 7 new operation theatres will be established at Sardar Patel Medical College. The medical college coming under the hospital will have 14 new seats in the PG course to accommodate more students. It was established by Maharaja Ganga Singh.
The builders will follow international standards in the construction of new departments for paediatric surgery, gastric surgery, neurosurgery, neurology, nephrology, gastroenterology and other specialised services.
Rajasthan Government has Plans to Boost the Healthcare Sector
Shedding light on the Centre and state government’s ambitious projects, Nadda said that the Centre has selected about 70 medical colleges all over India. These colleges will be upgraded with advanced technologies.
In Rajasthan, a few hospitals and medical colleges located in Kota, Udaipur and Bikaner will be updated to super specialty centres. In the coming times, 50 tertiary cancer centres will be set up in the country. One of these will be set up in Bikaner.
Out of 58 selected medical colleges, 8 of the colleges that will be upgraded in future are located in Bharatpur, Alwar, Churu, Barmer, Dungarpur, Sikar, Pali and Bhilwara. Not only this, the government will also work on Deendayal Amrit shops wherein they’ll provide free medicals to the public at discount rates.
Other than the Centre, even the state government, headed by Rajasthan health minister Kalicharan Saraf are working on key factors to improve healthcare facilities in Rajasthan.
