Delhi’s Public Works Department (PWD) Minister Satyendar Jain on Wednesday said the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government is constructing seven new hospitals with a unique building material technique.
These hospitals are being constructed at Sarita Vihar, Shalimar Bagh, Sultanpuri, Kirari, Raghubir Nagar, GTB Hospital Campus and Chacha Nehru Bal Chikitsalaya.
Jain standardised the procedure for the construction of the new hospitals, which will follow the precast building material technique along with an energy-efficient and environment-friendly approach.
“All steel and concrete material structures will be manufactured in factories and builders will only have to assemble them on the construction site, which will boost the construction speed. In-house Green Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) will be made in the hospitals with Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD),” Jain said.
He took stock of the advancement of the work of these hospitals and directed the officials to speed up the work.
He also directed the officials to adopt the modern methods of construction so that quality work can be completed in time.
Jain took to Twitter to talk about the development, “Convened a meeting with PWD officials and took stock of the advancement of the work of seven hospitals being constructed by the Kejriwal Government in the Capital. Directed the officials to use modern methods of construction so that the quality work can be completed in record time.”
He also directed the officials to make Green Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) in the hospitals. To this, he added, “These STPs will be devoid of any foul odour and will consume with very little power to function. All seven new hospitals will have in-house STPs with ZLD. All the hospitals will use five-star electric appliances that will be energy efficient.”
