AIIMS Bhopal's Gamma Knife Replacement Proposal Rejected

AIIMS Bhopal's Gamma Knife Replacement Proposal Rejected

Imagine a hospital in Bhopal wanted to use a new machine called ZAP for brain tumor surgery instead of a machine called Gamma Knife.

The hospital had already been given money for the Gamma Knife.

But the local politician, Alok Sharma, said no to the change because money had already been spent.

The government committee agreed and told the hospital to stick with the Gamma Knife.

They also said the cost of the whole project might be too high and should be checked again.
