The Chief Minister also praised the hospital, describing it as a symbol of excellence, dedication and trust in healthcare for decades. She said that while the institution has provided quality treatment to millions of patients, it has also made significant contributions to medical education, research and the advancement of modern healthcare services. The hospital, she added, has played a commendable role in encouraging women in the medical profession and providing them opportunities to take on leadership roles. Gupta said that women doctors, nurses, researchers and healthcare workers at the hospital are making meaningful contributions to society through their talent and commitment. Their tireless work and spirit of service not only improve patients' lives but also serve as an inspiration for future generations.
