    I started my career as junior executive trainee [exavation] at jagannath colliery at talchr in1983. Those days we faced a lot of trouble for health care facility in talcher. For trauma and accdent cases we had no other choice than shifting the patient to cuttack.

    I have great hopes in dr. kabat turning this dream to reality.

    I dedicate my services as honorary advisor for the project. If i will get the mail id of dr. kabat, i will be obliged to the editor.

    Forest dept hurdle for hospital
    SUBHASHISH MOHANTY

    Bhubaneswar, Nov. 22: Lack of coordination between the revenue and the forest departments has stalled work on a Rs 500crore medical college and hospital project being promoted by Mahanadi Coalfields Limited, a public sector undertaking.

    While the revenue department has given its nod to the facility to be set up on the company’s land at Talcher, the forest department insists forest clearance is a must.

    The company had agreed to set up a super-specialty hospital by converting its existing 200-bed facility at Talcher into a 450-bed hospital attached to a college on the request of the state government.

    At present, Odisha has three government medical colleges at Cuttack, Berhampur and Burla, apart from three private colleges. Board members of the company had already passed a resolution and allocated funds for the project. Dr R.N. Kabat, a promoter director, has also been appointed to monitor the work and steps have also been taken to seek affiliation from Utkal University.

    According to plan, the existing hospital would be converted into a medical college hospital on the lines of the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Science, Lucknow. For the facility, a trust headed by the company’s chairman has been formed.

    The company would use 56 acres of the existing hospital’s campus at Talcher to setting up the medical college. “As the land had been with us for more than 40 years, we were confident of the project taking off. The state government has also issued a no-objection certificate. However, the forest department raised an objection ,” said a company official.

    Company officials said the land had been with the revenue department even before the Forest Conservation Act, 1980, came into existence and the hospital had been functioning since 1989. “We don’t know why the forest department is poking its nose into the matter. When the state government is batting for private participation in development and taking steps to ensure expeditious forest clearance for projects, a state government department here is opposing a project for a medical college,” said a company official.

    Sources said the medical college would benefit nearly 40 lakh people in and around Angul. However, officials said unless the land issue was settled, it would be difficult to get the Medical Council of India’s approval for the project.

    The Angul district collector has written to the state government urging it to resolve the issue. Special secretary of the forest department Bhanu Pratap Singh said: “We have got the letter from Angul and are looking into the matter. The forest clearance is necessary. We are liberal in giving forest clearance to projects linked to pubic service.”
