Mumbai: Chairman of the Minister of Uddhav Thackeray on Saturday announced the RS 100 Crore fund for further development of the Topwala Medical College and B Y L Nair Hospital on the occasion of the hospital centenary celebration.
While the press record issued by the Director of General Information and Public Relations (DGIPR) said the state government would provide funds, the BMC press release said it would be provided with the state and BMC.
In a function held at the hospital on Saturday, Thackeray said, “A century ago, some generous advanced and so we got a gift of life through this hospital.
While the temple has been closed, God, in the form of a doctor, saved life.
This is a matter of pride that hospitals are part of the struggle for freedom, “he said.
Thackeray said after the 2005 flood, the laboratory was established at Kasturba Hospital for infectious diseases.
When Covid’s pandemic broke, at first there were only two Labs-Kasbba and NIV in Pune.
“Today, there are 600 labs.
And, while initially there are only 7-8,000 beds, today there are more than 4.5 lakh beds available.
The first genome sequencing lab to test the Delta variant has been arranged at the Nair Hospital,” he said.
Thackeray said very few notes about Spanish flu available today.
In the future, if at all, there is a pandemic, what should be known during this pandemic and therefore it is necessary to build accessible records, he said.
He also inaugurated immunology, skills of surgical and computer-based educational laboratories.
Nair Dean Dr.
Ramesh Bharmal said the funds would be used for infrastructure development in the hospital complex.
The hospital is in the midst of Mega’s makeover which is estimated at the RS 300 Crore, including three new buildings.
“One of these buildings will offer comprehensive cancer treatments, including pet scanning (to detect cancer cells) and linear accelerators for radiation therapy.”
