States of Karnataka, Kerala, Arunachal; all have demanded AIIMS: Minister tells parliament

New Delhi:  Apart from 22 new AIIMS which have been announced/sanctioned, proposals for setting up AIIMS-like hospitals have been received by the centre from Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tripura and Mizoram. Information to this effect was recently given by the Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare to the Lok Sabha recently

MOS Health, Shri Ashwani Kumar Choubey informed that till now 22 AIIMS have been announced/sanctioned to be set under Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY) out of  which 6 AIIMS i.e. Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Jodhpur, Patna, Raipur and Rishikesh are functional

“AIIMS are being set up in various parts of the country in a phased manner as per budget announcements keeping in view gaps in tertiary healthcare infrastructures in different regions of the country and availability of funds.” Chobey said

“Guiding principle for establishing additional AIIMS like institutions/hospitals in the country is the Presidential address to the Parliament dated 9th June, 2014 wherein it was inter- alia announced that “to address the shortfall of health care professionals, health education and training will be transformed and AIIMS like institutes will be established in every State in a phased manner,” he added
