Ayodhya's Rajarshi Dashrath Medical College set to open 110-bed trauma centre by May 2025
Ayodhya: As part of the state government’s scheme to develop Ayodhya into a hub of health and wellness, the Uttar Pradesh government has greenlit the construction of a state-of-the-art 110-bed trauma centre at the Rajarshi Dashrath Medical College, Darshan Nagar, Ayodhya.
The project with an estimated budget of Rs 33 crore, is expected to be completed by May 2025. The facility will include a 50-bed trauma centre and a 60-bed emergency medicine department, providing comprehensive emergency medical services with a total capacity of 110 beds.
It will offer comprehensive modern healthcare services to patients under one roof, which will save the residents of Ayodhya from travelling to Lucknow for the treatment of emergency cases. Ayodhya will become a hub of both spirituality and advanced healthcare.

According to an official spokesperson, the trauma centre is part of the broader blueprint for Ayodhya's development, which began with the construction of the Ram Temple.
"Concerned about the health needs of both residents and devotees, CM Yogi has directed the expansion of facilities at the multi-speciality hospital and Rajarshi Dashrath Medical College in Darshan Nagar," the spokesperson told TOI.
Following government approval, the UP State Construction and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (UPSIDCO) initiated the project, and 50 per cent of the work on the three-storey building has already been completed.
Speaking to Daily Pioneer, Principal Dr Gyanendra Kumar said, “The construction is progressing rapidly, and the centre will also feature a modern lift for added convenience. This trauma centre will be a major asset for critically ill patients, offering all necessary services in one place, eliminating the need for patients and their families to travel between facilities.”
