Bengaluru: In a significant move towards enhancing healthcare infrastructure, Japan's Toyota Tsusho and Secom Medical System have unveiled plans to establish a second state-of-the-art healthcare facility under the banner of Sakra World Hospital in India. The ambitious project, set to receive an investment of Rs 1,000 crore, aims to bolster medical services and cater to the evolving healthcare needs of the region.

The existing collaboration between Toyota Tsusho and Secom Medical System has already established Sakra World Hospital in Bengaluru, which has garnered acclaim for its exceptional healthcare standards.
