Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Wednesday virtually inaugurated the Phase-II of the makeshift hospital at Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), which will be used for treating critical symptomatic COVID-19 patients. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), which completed the construction of the mega-hospital facility on March 30, later handed it over to BMC.
R A Rajeev, Metropolitan Commissioner, MMRDA, said, "We are happy to set up this mega healthcare centre at BKC for treating COVID-19 patients. It gives me immense confidence that we were able to do our bit in this critical time of the pandemic. The patients who received treatment in the first phase facility of the healthcare centre have shared their testimony and expressed their satisfaction in getting timely treatment and necessary care."
