The district magistrate Savin Bansal approved Rs 77.30 lakh to address deficiencies identified during his inspections of the hospital, girls’ hostel and Pt Shiv Ram Government Degree College in Tyuni.
Stating this, the DM said that Rs 54.45 lakh has been allocated for purchasing an X-ray machine, an ultrasound machine, a room heater, an electric kettle, pillows and a three-seater chair and also for hiring one ward boy through outsourcing as well as deploying a cleaner. “These improvements in hospital facilities will provide the people easier access to services,” he said.
Additionally, Rs 17.95 lakh has been released for the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya and the girls’ hostel to purchase study tables, furniture, equipment, a roti maker, internet-related equipment and a digital board.
