IMPHAL, Sep 22 : Taking perhaps the first step towards its realisation, the Consultant for the Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences, Host Max, India Ltd, Mumbai has today submitted the Detailed Project Report for the said institution to the State Government and the same will be forwarded to the Planning Commission tomorrow.
Host Max was selected through a tender.
The cost of the whole project is pegged at Rs 170 crores and a team from the Consultant which arrived at Manipur today gave a high power presentation complete with slides and pictures of the proposed institute before the Government, after the Cabinet meeting which concluded in the evening.
This is the third visit by representatives from the Consultant.
Apart from a medical college, the institute will have a new hospital, quarters for the Professors, nurses, hostels for boys and girls and living quarters for other employees.
The land needed for the complex is pegged at 45 acres and the shopping complex of the PDA which has been constructed adjacent to JN Hospital at Porompat will be acquired and the land taken over for the institute.
Other private land are also likely to be acquired.
Out of the 45 acres of land, one third will be used for the concrete buildings to come up while the rest will be left for future expansion including a swimming pool.
Work for building the infrastructure of the institution will be held in three phases and the first phase is likely to start from August next year.
The institute will be constructed under funding from the Special Plan Assistance of the Centre.
The failure of the Consultant (Health Depart- ment) to submit the Detailed Project Report earlier had been an uncomfortable affair as all other Government Departments had submitted the same for all projects to be taken up under the Special Plan Assistance.
Chief Secretary Rakesh had a few days back convened a meeting of all officers concerned to discuss the DPRs of their respective projects and the State Health Department was instructed to hurry up with the DPR for the institute.
