Kalaburagi: The work of a 100-bed hospital at Jevargi in Kalaburagi district, to be built in the memory of former Chief Minister Dharam Singh, will begin on Christmas day, on his 85th birth anniversary.
Ajay Singh said that besides the hospital, a convention centre, a library and a museum would be constructed near Jevargi in honor of the memory of the former chief minister. “The 100-bed hospital will cater to children and women, and will be built in a plot spread over two and a half acres. CM Basavaraj Bommai has agreed to name the hospital after Dharam Singh: MLA said.
The land for the hospital will be handed over to the state government on December 25, which is the 85th birth anniversary of Dharam Singh. “Dharam Singh Foundation owns the land near Kattisangvi on the banks of river Bhima. A part of the land will be used for the hospital, the remaining land will be used for the convention centre, library and a museum,” Ajay Singh said.
The Congress MLA said that poor families who cannot pay rent in private convention centers can get their loved ones married at the convention center free of cost. “The primary objective behind the creation of this center is to help the poor. We are also building a big dining hall next to the hospital to feed the patients and their visitors alike,” said Ajay Singh
Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha and senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge will lay the foundation stone of the buildings at Kattisangvi on December 25, Ajay Singh said.
