BUDGAM: In a follow-up review meeting, the Deputy Commissioner (DC) Budgam, Athar Aamir Khan, today assessed the progress of the under-construction 125-bedded hospital and the 100-bedded Critical Care Unit (CCU) at Reshipora Budgam.
The DC conducted a comprehensive review of both projects, which are being developed to significantly enhance healthcare infrastructure and ensure improved medical services for the people of the district.
During the meeting, the DC took a detailed appraisal of the proposed hospital infrastructure, including building arrangements, functional requirements, and floor-wise facilities.
He emphasised that the hospital must be developed as a modern, patient-centric institution equipped with all essential healthcare services. A detailed status of the 100-bedded CCU, a G+3 structure, was also reviewed. The CCU is envisioned as a key facility for strengthening emergency and critical care services in the district.
Officials informed that since the project was handed over in May 2024, substantial physical progress has been achieved. Major works including pile cap casting, plinth level columns, plinth beam RCC, and ground floor slab have been completed. Construction of upper floors is progressing steadily, with nearly 50% completion of the first and second floor slabs, while AAC block masonry work is also underway.
It was further informed that the remaining work on the second floor slab is targeted for completion by mid-April 2026, and the overall project is expected to be completed by September 2026.
The DC directed the executing agency to ensure optimal utilisation of resources to accelerate the pace of work. He stressed strict adherence to quality standards, safety norms, and timelines.
He reiterated that the 125-bedded hospital and the 100-bedded CCU at Reshipora Budgam will play a transformative role in strengthening healthcare delivery, particularly in critical and emergency care services.
The DC instructed officers to maintain close coordination, promptly address bottlenecks, and ensure timely completion of both projects for the larger public benefit. He further reiterated that the district administration remains committed to augmenting healthcare infrastructure and providing accessible, quality medical services to the people of Budgam. The meeting was attended by JD Planning, SE R&B, officials from Jal Shakti, CMO, concerned executive engineers, and other officers.
