JAMSHEDPUR – Health Minister Banna Gupta announced the imminent launch of OPD services at the new MGM Hospital following an inspection.

"OPD services will commence in October, benefiting patients," Gupta informed reporters post-inspection.

The minister highlighted the allocation of a Rs 5 crore uncategorized fund for essential resources.

Gupta criticized the opposition, stating, "The BJP never cared for MGM Hospital during their tenure, yet they raise questions now."

The new hospital will boast 731 beds, including 131 ICU beds and modern amenities.

"We’re addressing the bed shortage issue with this expansion," explained a hospital administrator.

Simultaneously, a 500-bed hospital is being constructed in Sakchi to meet growing healthcare demands.

Gupta challenged opposition parties to review their own contributions to MGM Hospital’s improvement during their governance.
