Mumbai: After undergoing major renovation and expansion by the Reliance Foundation, Mumbai's first general hospital is all set to be inaugurated on Saturday by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Built in 1925 , Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital is now a swanky 19 floor structure in the heart of South Mumbai. The hospital is furnished with state-of-the-art operation theatres.
For the first time, the hospital has a collaboration with America's most renowned institutes like Johns Hopkins, MD Anderson Cancer Centre, Massachusetts General Hospital and University of Southern California.
The hospital will reserve a fifth of its capacity for the underprivileged and provide 10 per cent beds for free to the needy and another 10 per cent at subsidised rates.
Doctors have also been asked to conduct free surgeries and hold free weekly OPDs for the poor as well.
The hospital has applied for a green status, which could make it India's largest green hospital.
The inauguration ceremony begins at 4 pm today. You can watch it here.
