Mohali Deputy Mayor objects to setting up Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences at Phase 3B1 Hospital
"The decision to set up an ILBS in Mohali is welcome, but it should not be at the cost of closing another hospital. The new institute should be given vacant space or shifted to another building.";
Mohali: The Mohali deputy mayor Kuljit Singh Bedi recently opposed the decision of the Punjab Health Department to set up the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences (ILBS) at the recently upgraded government hospital building in Phase 3B1, stating that the move should not be at the cost of closing another hospital.
The AAP-led Punjab government had announced the setting up of the super-specialty institute in the government's budget in June, which was tagged to be a dedicated centre for the diagnosis and management of liver and biliary diseases.
While critiquing the government's decision to set up the ILBS at the Phase-3B1 government hospital, the mayor stated that the move would be opposed at all levels, reports the Hindustan Times. He said, "The decision to set up an ILBS in Mohali is welcome, but it should not be at the cost of closing another hospital. The new institute should be given vacant space or shifted to another building."
