Rae Bareli: After a long wait of about 11 years, the All India Institutes of Medical Sciences(AIIMS) started its operations with an OPD centre here in Rae Bareli on Monday.
This is the first AIIMS to start operation in the state with others being constructed in Gorakhpur.
The foundation stone of the AIIMS was laid by the then Congress president Sonia Gandhi in 2007 but due to some administration problem of getting land and other issues delayed the project.
The AIIMS, situated at Dariyapur area of the district, OPD started at 0800 hours on Monday and the patients are charged just Rs 10.
This AIIMS would give a big relief to the patients of the nearby districts like Amethi, Sultanur, Pratapgarh, Fatehpur and Kanpur as now they can avail the facilities of specialist doctors as earlies they had to rush to SGPGI or KGMU, both in Lucknow, sources said.
In the first phase, there are 35 staffs including 8 doctors for the OPD facility, all trained at PGI, Chandigarh, who are the nodal institution for establishing this AIIMS.
