Chandigarh: With an aim to meeting the target of establishing medical colleges in each district, the Haryana CM laid the foundation stone of Bhagwan Parshuram Government Medical College in Sampan Khedi village, in Kaithal district.
The Bhagwan Parshuram Government Medical College, which is to be constructed in the village of Sampan Khedi at an estimated cost of Rs 950 crore on a 20-acre land, will have 100 MBBS seats and a 500-bed hospital. A target has been set to complete the construction work of this project in the next 30 months.
Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal said that state government is extending healthcare services to every home by establishing medical colleges in each district.

He stated that preceding regimes had established six medical colleges before 2014, providing a total of 700 MBBS seats. But now in the year 2023, there are 15 medical colleges in the state and 2185 MBBS seats. Looking ahead, plans are underway to establish eight additional medical colleges, including in Fatehabad, Sirsa, Charkhi Dadri and Palwal. Over the next three to four years, the number of MBBS seats is expected to reach 3,500, he added.
In addition to these healthcare initiatives, the state government is also actively setting up Nursing Colleges and Paramedical Colleges. The Chief Minister said that the government's commitment extends beyond infrastructure development. The government is dedicated to promoting public health awareness, with the construction of gyms and wellness centers in every village. These wellness centers will not only offer Ayurvedic services but also have dieticians who will educate the public about healthy lifestyles and dietary choices.
During the event, MLA Sh Leela Ram conveyed his appreciation to the Chief Minister for giving Bhagwan Parshuram Government Medical College and Hospital, costing at Rs 950 crore, and four additional projects worth Rs 17 crore to Kaithal.
