Prime Minister, Narendra Modi dedicated to the nation, AIIMS Nagpur and also took a walkthrough of the Nagpur AIIMS Project Model and witnessed the Milestone Exhibition Gallery that was showcased on the occasion.

Modi's commitment to strengthening health infrastructure across the country will be strengthened through the dedication of AIIMS Nagpur to the nation. The Hospital, whose foundational stone was also laid by the Prime Minister in July 2017, has been established under the Central sector scheme Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana.

AIIMS Nagpur, being developed at a cost of more than Rs. 1,575 crore, is a hospital with OPD, IPD, and diagnostic services, operation theatres and 38 departments covering all major speciality and super speciality subjects of medical science. The hospital provides modern healthcare facilities to the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra and is a boon to the surrounding tribal areas of Gadchiroli, Gondia, and Melghat. 

Modi was accompanied by Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde; Governor of Maharashtra, Bhagat Singh Koshyari; Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis; and Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari.

AIIMS Nagpur will boost healthcare infrastructure for the city and neighbouring areas, especially the remote areas where many tribal communities live.
