Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi has approved the establishment of a new medical college in Jagatsinghpur, fulfilling a long-standing demand of the district’s residents.
The announcement was made during the State Assembly discussions on the budget approval bill. This development comes as part of the state government’s efforts to enhance healthcare infrastructure and education in the region.
State Industries Minister Samapad Swain praised the Chief Minister’s initiative, stating, “This medical college is a monumental step toward improving healthcare accessibility and expanding medical education opportunities for the people of Jagatsinghpur.”
This follows the earlier promise of an airstrip in Jagatsinghpur, further amplifying the district’s infrastructure. More details about the medical college’s timeline and budget allocation are expected in the coming months, as the government aligns with broader statewide development plans.
