From Dharitri: Call for Tenders for the hospital and medical college complex of the AIIMS-like institutions
November 2nd, 2009
Update: Tathya has an article and pictures on the current status of the construction of AIIMS Bhubaneswar. One of the pictures is given below. Tathya.in says: "Kolkota based Unit Construction has taken up the construction job, while the PSU, Hospital Services Consultation Corporation (HSCC) is the civil consultant for this projects."
More details on the tender is at http://mohfw.nic.in/Index6aiims.htm:
- Notice Inviting Tender for Six AIIMS Projects under PMSSY Scheme (as published in News Papers on 2nd Nov 2009).
- Notice Inviting Tenders and instruction to tenderers.
- Contact Officials for each AIIMS Site
The above tender is about the hospital and medical college. Earlier in May 2008, tenders were floated for the housing complex. See https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1121. (Even older links related to tenders for the AIIMS-like institution in Bhubaneswar are at https://www.orissalinks.com/?p=970.) In June 2009 it was reported that:
- Out of the 14 blocks of the AIIMS, the roof works of eight blocks have already been completed.
- An alternative road has already been constructed for the Sijua village and 90 per cent work has already been completed.
- Steps have been taken to remove the high-voltage transmission line.
I hope additional progress has been made with respect to the housing construction.

I hope the state govt should take the pace of work as a lesson when compare present construction work status of BPUT.Its a shame that the govt is maintaining double standards and doing nothing for BPUT.I can bet BPUT status will remain the same after 10 years from now.And the AIIMS will come into a reality.I know this is funded by Central Govt but why this apathy for BPUT ?
