Aundh chest hospital struggles for survival

Hindustan Times Pune

|

March 10, 2025

The Aundh chest hospital (ACH), the only crucial healthcare facility in the entire district that provides indoor treatment facility to tuberculosis (TB) patients, is struggling to stay afloat as its funds are being diverted to cover mounting property tax and water bill dues.

PUNE:

The hospital's limited resources are being drained to pay for expenses that should rightfully be shared by multiple government and semi-government offices operating within its premises, the officials said.

The ACH receives funding from the state government and under the TB programme, is facing a severe financial crunch.

The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) recently sealed the hospital over pending property tax dues of ₹25.75 lakh, only to reopen it after repeated requests.

The hospital has to pay an annual property tax of ₹7.95 lakh, hosting 14 offices that contribute nothing toward these expenses.
