Amidst the ongoing protest by the AIIMS Coordinating Committee, the centre had directed the J&K government to identify 200 acres sites each for setting up AIIMS in the state
The loud protests by the AIIMS Coordinating Committee seems to have rub no ice with the government, with the centre directing the J&K government to now identify the sites for setting up of AIIMS. 200 acres of land are reportedly required to set up separate unit of AIIMS in Jammu and Srinagar, separately.
"The letter says that 200 acre land should be identified in both the regions. The decision on this issue was taken by the Health Minister himself," a senior Health Ministry official said while confirming the development.
He said that yesterday's meeting was a follow up of the meeting held earlier between the Health Minister and a delegation of Jammu and Kashmir.
The delegation which met Nadda recently included state Deputy Chief Minister Nirmal Singh, Health Minister Lal Singh, state BJP president Jugal Kishore Sharma, party J&K affairs in charge Avinash Rai Khanna and general secretary Narendra Singh.
