Aurangabad: The crucial 200-bed strong maternal and child health (MCH) wing project may finally fall in the kitty of the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH), indicated National Health Mission director Anoop Kumar Yadav, while speaking to TOI on Tuesday.Earlier, the public health department and the GMCH, which is under the medical education department of the state government, were both claiming the rights for the project. “The GMCH is overloaded with a large number of deliveries and has specialists at its disposal. Setting up the two projects separately will increase the overall efficiency,” he said while adding that a final decision has not yet been made..
