unit, ultrasound (sonography) and cold chain room at par with the guidelines issued under IPHS at the aforesaid Hospital.”
The issue pertains to the construction of the SubDivisional Hospital at Paliganj in the district of Patna.
From the supplementary counter affidavit dated 14.12.2019 of the respondent no. 7, we find that necessary steps have been taken in the matter. The relevant portion of paragraph
6 thereof reads as follows:-
“6 That in view of the selection of land tender has been invited and 6 bidders have participated and as such it is evident that the tender for the construction of Sub Divisional Hospital is under process.”
As such, we do not proceed in the matter. The writ
petition stands disposed of.
We hope and expect that the hospital should be made operational within the time stipulated in the contract.
