Minister to launch projects worth ₹9.3-cr.
The functioning of the Government Medical College Hospital (MCH) in Kottayam is all set to receive a major boost with the Health Minister Veena George on Tuesday slated to launch a host of new of projects worth ₹9.34 crore.
The projects to be opened during the day include Nursing College Auditorium and Library-Examination Hall, constructed at cost of ₹6.20 crore, the renovated neurosurgery wards, Oxygen Generator at the children's hospital and a nephrology lab, among others.
Hospital authorities said the installation of oxygen generator will make the children's hospital self-sufficient in oxygen supply while the 750 KV generator will facilitate the day-to-day operations of the Medical College Hospital.
Everyone talks about the Airport Metro, but one look at the pillars and completion seems nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, a faster, cheaper, roomier alternative called the Suburban Rail Airport Corridor is finally getting off the drawing board. This dedicated corridor with its specialised coaches will link the airport to vast stretches of Bengaluru, where the metro connection is still years away.
