AIMING to modernise and strengthen healthcare services in the national capital, the Delhi Government has proposed integrating some of the city’s key medical institutions — Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital (GTB), the Delhi State Cancer Institute (DSCI) and Rajiv Gandhi Super Speciality Hospital (RGSSH) — into a unified autonomous institution on the lines of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS).
At the same time, the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS) will be developed in the future as “NIMHANS-2”, a major national centre for mental health and neurosciences, modelled on the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences.
