Reviewing the ongoing construction with officials of health department, Deputy Commissioner of West Garo Hills and officials of the construction company, the Chief Minister said the pace of the construction has been slow, which has been speeded up recently.
“The civil works of the college should be completed by June-July next year. We are hopeful to complete the infrastructure and start the medical college. The process to increase the beds in Tura Civil Hospital will also start soon,” Sangma added.
The Chief Minister has also directed Deputy Commissioner Jagdish Chelani to hold regular review with the construction company and ensure that the college is completed within next year.
