In this direction, giving great relief to the youth of the state, he announced that next year three new medical colleges will start functioning in the state, Vaishali, Siwan and Bhojpur. With their commencement, medical education will get a boost and the number of doctors in the state will increase significantly.
Modern facilities will be available in hospitals – Minister
The minister also said that the government will now pay special attention to the comprehensive upgradation of health infrastructure.

The efficiency of the health department will increase
According to the information, due to slow pace of recruitment processes in the last few years, a large number of candidates were waiting for appointments.
