Laying the foundation for a ₹327-crore government medical college and hospital here on Saturday, Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami rejected the claims of political opponents and asserted that the State government was fulfilling the promises it had made to the people.
Appealing to the public to ignore the statements of Opposition parties, he said they were unable to stomach the popularity of “Amma’s ( Jayalalithaa’s) government”.
Stating that the new medical college will come up on a vast 20-acre area, Mr. Palaniswami thanked the Union government for granting approvals and sanctioning funds for medical colleges in 11 locations, including Dindigul.
The one in Dindigul will become functional from the next academic year (2021-22), and 150 students will be admitted to the institution, he said.
