In a major initiative for the growth and development of the healthcare sector in Jammu and Kashmir, Governor Satya Pal Malik announced on Saturday (14 September) the massive 'Medi-City' project for which the land has already been identified in both Jammu and Srinagar, reports Asian News International (ANI).
Announcing the move, Malik said, "We have decided to have a 'Medi-City' in both Jammu and Srinagar. A lot of best hospitals across the country are willing to invest in them. We will bring them here and operate the Medi-City."
The governor was speaking while inaugurating a government-owned hospital in Jammu region's Kathua district. He also said that the region of Jammu and Kashmir was now in direct connection with the government at the Centre. Hailing it as a great positive, Malik said, "The situation is such that you can ask whatever from the central government. They have kept their hands open."
