Lucknow: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said on Sunday that King George Medical University (KGMU) getting the status of AIIMS could take some time as it is a policy matter and need proper clearance from all the government channels.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported in the year 2017, after being elected the UP CM, Yogi Adityanath announced that the King George’s Medical University (KGMU) will soon be upgraded into a state university and also get the status of AIIMS.
The state university status would give the university an affiliation advantage with other medical and dental institutions. The granting of the AIIMS status, would mean an addition of super specialty departments, increased foreign research collaborations and better healthcare facilities.
