Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Monday laid the foundation stone for a Multi Super Speciality Hospital at the King Institute for Preventive Medicine and Research Centre, in Guindy. The building is estimated to cost ₹230 crore.
Mr. Stalin had announced last year on June 3, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of former CM M. Karunanidhi that a 500-bed multi specialty hospital would come up at an estimated cost of ₹250 crore in the premises of the Institute, which then served as a hospital to treat COVID-19 patients.
The six-storey structure is being built by the Public Works Department on 4.89 acres, with a built-up area of 51,429 square feet.
