RANCHI – Chief Minister Champai Soren laid the foundation stone for Gautam Medical College and Hospital in Ranchi Smart City on Thursday, marking a significant step in Jharkhand’s healthcare development.

"This new institution will not only improve health services but also drive the state’s overall progress," Soren stated during the ceremony.

Healthcare Priorities

Soren highlighted the government’s focus on strengthening state health services.

He emphasized ongoing efforts to enhance healthcare infrastructure across Jharkhand.

The Chief Minister expressed hope that the new facility would reduce out-of-state medical travel for residents.

Future Healthcare Landscape
