Naidu to lay foundation of Nirali Hospital in Navsari

Surat: Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu will lay the foundation of Nirali Memorial Medical Trust’s (NMMT), multi-specialty hospital in Navsari on March 5. The hospital that will come up on the eight-acre Trust’s AM Naik Healthcare Complex is part of L&T group chairman, philanthropist and Padma Vibhushan awardee A M Naik’s philanthropic journey to provide medical care to the community at large.
Named in the memory of Nirali, granddaughter of Naik, who passed away due to cancer at the age of two, NMMT was set up by the Naik family to offer advanced medical care, especially to those who cannot afford access to quality treatment.
The 500-bed hospital will incorporate a range of advanced multidisciplinary equipment and services including cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery, paediatrics, critical and trauma care. “My focus for philanthropy is on South Gujarat, my janmabhoomi and Mumbai, my karmabhoomi. Our mission is to provide the finest and affordable tertiary healthcare available to common people,” said Naik.
