PGIMER Chandigarh Receives Over 1,600 Crore for Digital Health

The government has spent a lot of money, over 1,607 crore rupees, on improving digital health at a big hospital in Chandigarh called PGIMER in the last five years.

This money was given to the hospital to buy new digital tools and systems.

This information was revealed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in response to a question asked by a member of Parliament, Manish Tewari.

The amount allocated for this purpose has increased to 350 crore rupees this year.

The MP's question raised some concerns about how the money has been used and whether there are still problems with the hospital's equipment and digital systems.
