Punjab is on the cusp of a healthcare revolution, driven by a clear vision to empower its citizens through advanced medical education, cutting-edge research, and unparalleled access to quality healthcare. Under the visionary leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, the government is building not just institutions but a legacy of progress, innovation, and compassion.

Revolutionizing Medical Education: A Beacon for Aspiring Healers

For years, students in Punjab dreamed of pursuing medicine but often faced limited opportunities close to home. The Maan Government is changing this narrative by establishing five state-of-the-art medical colleges in Mastuana Sahib, Sangrur, Kapurthala, Malerkotla, and Hoshiarpur, each offering 100 MBBS seats. These institutions are set to become hubs of excellence, nurturing the next generation of medical professionals and reducing the brain drain from the state.

At Patiala, the Government Medical College is undergoing a transformative upgrade with a ₹110-crore investment, featuring a modern Burn Unit, residential facilities, and even a sports complex to provide holistic development for medical students.

Empowering Research: Breaking Boundaries in Healthcare Solutions

Research is the cornerstone of medical advancement, and the Maan Government is ensuring that Punjab becomes a leader in this arena. With an allocation of ₹1,133 crores in the current fiscal year for medical education and research, the state is paving the way for groundbreaking discoveries.

The recently inaugurated Punjab Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences in Mohali stands as a testament to this commitment. Already operational with OPD services, the institute is set to become a hub for specialized treatment and research, offering new hope to patients and professionals alike.

Additionally, the state is focusing on integrating traditional medicine with modern science. The establishment of the Guru Ravidas Ayurved University in Hoshiarpur and the introduction of initiatives like ‘CM Di Yogshala’ emphasize the importance of holistic health approaches while encouraging research in alternative medicine.

Healthcare Meets Innovation: Facilities That Transform Lives

The Maan Government’s investment in healthcare is directly linked to advancing medical education and research. Facilities like the State Cancer Institute in Amritsar (₹114 crores) and the Tertiary Cancer Centre in Fazilka (₹45 crores) are not just treating patients but also creating opportunities for clinical research and practical learning for medical students.

These institutions offer state-of-the-art equipment and methodologies, ensuring that Punjab’s budding doctors are trained to meet global standards. Such initiatives are not just about infrastructure—they are about fostering innovation and ensuring that future healthcare professionals can tackle challenges with confidence and expertise.

Investing in the Future: A Healthier, Smarter Punjab

Behind these ambitious projects is a vision that places the health and education of its people at the centre. By combining advanced facilities, research opportunities, and a student-centric approach, the Maan Government is creating an ecosystem where healthcare professionals thrive and the people of Punjab benefit from their expertise.

Punjab is no longer just building colleges or hospitals; it is building a healthcare future where education, research, and compassion intersect. This is the new Punjab—one where every medical student has the resources to succeed, every researcher has the freedom to innovate, and every citizen has access to the care they deserve.

Because when you invest in education and research, you invest in a healthier, brighter tomorrow. And the Maan Government is doing just that—one visionary step at a time.
