"This hospital will undergo enhancements to ensure that the residents of the area benefit from it. There are no government-operated hospitals in this vicinity, neither from the central nor the Delhi government, but we are dedicated to improving this facility," Bidhuri stated.

The visit was part of ongoing initiatives aimed at bolstering healthcare services in the locality. "The residents of Palam deserve superior healthcare, and with additional improvements, this hospital will fulfill their requirements," he added.

The residents of Palam, including myself, Kuldeep Solanki, and other senior members of the community, have been advocating for a new and improved hospital."

Bidhuri also mentioned that he, along with local figures such as MLA Kuldeep Solanki and Councillor Seema Pandit, had formally urged Minister Nadda to facilitate the establishment of a new hospital on a 3.5-acre site in the area. "We have requested Mr Nadda to assist us in constructing a comprehensive hospital, which will significantly enhance healthcare access for the citizens of Palam," he stated.
