Mayor Renu Dahal Lays Foundation Stone Of Divyanagar Health Post Building

Nov 28, Kathmandu- The foundation stone of a two-storey building of the Divyanagar Health Post in West Chitwan was laid on Thursday.

Bharatpur Metropolitan City Mayor Renu Dahal, Deputy Mayor Chitrasen Adhikari, and Chief Administrative Officer Laxmi Prasad Poudel jointly laid the foundation stone of the building.

Addressing the foundation stone laying program, Mayor Dahal said that since most of the hospitals in Bharatpur are centered in the district headquarters, a new health post is being built in Divyanagar to provide services to the people at their doorsteps.

She expressed confidence that the past situation of having to travel to the district headquarters for a day for routine treatment will be eliminated after the construction of the health post. She said that the metropolitan city is continuing the work of building one health institution per ward in accordance with the spirit and spirit of the federal republic.

Mayor Dahal informed that the metropolis has been working on upgrading old health posts in the ward, proper management of human resources, and construction of health posts in places where there are no health posts since the past. Speaking at the program, Deputy Mayor Chitrasen Adhikari said that the construction of the under-construction health post building will ensure that the citizens of this area receive effective health services and urged them to proceed with the construction work in a timely and quality manner.

Laxmi Prasad Poudel, Chief Administrative Officer of Bharatpur Metropolitan City, expressed confidence that this health center will be able to provide quality health services to the citizens. The construction of the building, which has been contracted for Rs 16.8 million including value added tax, should be completed by the coming month of Jestha. With the construction of this building, the people of West Chitwan will get additional health services at their doorsteps. Deurali Sharma JV has been given the responsibility of the construction.

The health post will have a birthing center, a multi-purpose hall, and 14 rooms. The foundation stone laying program was held under the chairmanship of Ward Chairman Gyan Prasad Khanal.
