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
