West Bengal CM lays foundation stone of Snayu Tirtha Medical College and Hospital
On Monday, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee laid the foundation stone of a new medical college and hospital named Snayu Tirtha Medical College and Hospital. The initiative, led by the Institute of Neurosciences Kolkata (I-NK), is located in Shason Gram Panchayat of North 24 Parganas, Barasat.
The medical college and hospital will have 150 MBBS seats and 800 beds.
For this project, I-NK has taken up a large site of 33 acres of land at Khamar Naobaad near Rajarhat in North 24 Parganas with an initial funding of Rs 500 crore. The reason behind taking land in North 24 Parganas is that all the medical facilities will be provided by the National Medical Council (NMC). Furthermore, the premises will also accommodate colleges of paramedical sciences and nursing.
