The Chief Minister envisioned that this college with MBBS seats will emerge Sangrur as a hub of medical education in the entire region.
He said apart from construction of the academic block, the project will include upgradation of existing Civil Hospital Sangrur from 220 bed to 360 bed, construction of a nursing school, separate hostels for senior and junior girls and boys, among others.
