Did Medanta Medicity get subsidy on land- Asks CIC

The state Health Department has conveyed that no bills were received by it from the hospital.

The Haryana government had provided circle rate of sector 30, 31, 32, 39 and 40 but the circle rate of sector 38 where hospital is located in Gurgaon was not provided.

Acharyulu said it can be understood that Director General, Health Services, Haryana is cognisant of the fact that Medanta Medcity Hospital is a private hospital and whether any concession was granted to that hospital.

Such information has to be furnished and the reply 'no control of the private hospital' is incomplete and misleading information and it is contrary to the provisions of the Act for bringing about transparency in the working of the government. Theshould act reasonably and diligently, he said.

Acharyulu directed the central government and Health Department of Haryana government "to explain whether any concession/subsidy/or any other facility was given to this private hospital".

"The Commission...Directs HUDA to inform (it about) the circle rate of sector 38, at the time of allotment of the land to Medanta Medicity in that circle," he said.
