Officials confirmed that construction is expected to start on April 10.

According to health and PWD officials, nearly 80% of the work up to the fourth floor has already been completed. However, while the facility was initially scheduled for completion in January 2024, officials now estimate that it will take another nine months before the hospital block is fully operational.

Expanded ICU facilities to ease overcrowding

The 100-bed block was originally designed as a four-floor building, for which a ₹21 crore tender was awarded in 2021, officials said.
