Description

In view of the ever increasing population of the city of Chandigarh a second 500bedded General Hospital had become a necessity not only for catering to the needs of patients in the southern sectors of the city but also to cater for patients from the satellite townships of Panchkula and SAS Nagar The first 500bedded General Hospital in sector 16 remains choked with the flow of patients from the first phase sectors of the city and the surrounding states of Punjab Haryana Himachal Pradesh and western parts of Uttar Pradesh The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education amp Research located in sector 12 Chandigarh was conceived as a premier referral centre for the northern states of India

The second General Hospital in Sector 32 had been planned to serve the second phase sectors thereby relieving pressure on General Hospital Sector 16 and Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education amp Research PGIMER so that the latter could serve as a first rate referral hospital
