The Story in Brief
The Mandya Institute of Medical Sciences (MIMS) and its teaching hospital will receive a ₹50 crore upgrade for modern infrastructure, including a student hostel, state-of-the-art classrooms and academic facilities. The announcement followed an inspection by Mandya MLA P. Ravikumar Gowda Ganiga and Deputy Commissioner Kumar on Monday.
The MLA also stressed the need for a well-equipped trauma care centre on a five-acre plot along the Bengaluru-Mysuru highway to serve accident victims and emergency patients. He directed officials to prepare a comprehensive blueprint quickly, heard patient grievances, and instructed MIMS director Narasimhamurthy to ensure quality treatment and basic amenities for all visitors.
The Indian Opinion
The announcement of a ₹50 crore MIMS upgrade and a trauma centre sounds good, but voters have heard such promises before. The MLA’s call for quality and speed is welcome; the real test is whether the blueprint is submitted within weeks and the funds released in the next state budget. Land acquisition for the trauma centre on the busy Bengaluru-Mysuru highway often drags. Will the Deputy Commissioner identify the five-acre plot before the end of this financial year, or will this become another file gathering dust?
