In the past few years, the Centre and the UP Government have done extensive work in the health sector, he said, noting that as a part of these efforts, a 100-bed MCH wing in BHU hospital will be inaugurated.

The project will make quality healthcare easily accessible to the people of Kashi and surrounding areas, he tweeted.
