The CM’s visit follows closely on the heels of another milestone event — the foundation laying of the ‘Powergrid Vishram Sadan’ at AIIMS Gorakhpur.

“AIIMS Gorakhpur is steadily progressing and becoming a key hub for healthcare in this region. It is situated in the heart of eastern UP, and with projects like the Vishram Sadan, we are contributing to the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi of linking robust healthcare services to the foundation of a developed, modern India,” CM Yogi said during the earlier ceremony.
