Construction and other activities concerning the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Madurai will begin “very soon,” Harsh Vardhan, Union Minister for Health, informed the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday.
Responding to a supplementary question raised by M.Thambi Durai of the AIADMK on the status of the AIIMS project, the Union Minister said it involved financial support from a Japanese agency.
“The process is in very advanced stages,” he said, adding that the Union government was “actively pursuing” the matter.
