He said a 100-bedded building is under construction and will be ready for inauguration by April next year. "It will help us provide better facilities," he said.

Dr Sonali Khajuria, who works in the hospital, said that they were facing some scarcity of space in accommodating various machines as construction work is underway but once the building is complete, the people will be able to avail facilities in a better manner.
