50-bed High-Tech Ayurvedic Hospital turned into car shed, facility left unused
50-bedded Ayurvedic Hospital In Chikkamagaluru Turns into a Parking lot
Chikkamagaluru: A high-tech Ayurvedic hospital located near the District Panchayat in Chikkamagaluru, built for Rs 7.5 crore, has failed to fulfil its purpose of offering healthcare to the local community, despite being completed over a year ago. The 50-bed facility remains unused and has instead turned into a parking lot for officials' cars.
The foundation stone for the project was laid in 2022 by former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, and the inauguration took place in 2024 under the leadership of current Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. However, more than a year after its completion, the hospital remains closed, and instead of offering medical services, it has become a car shed for government officials.
