Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, February 23, 2025 — Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Bageshwar Dham in Garha village, Chhatarpur district, where he offered prayers and laid the foundation stone for the Bageshwar Dham Medical and Science Research Institute. This initiative aims to enhance healthcare services in the region, particularly for underprivileged cancer patients.
The proposed institute will span 10 acres, with the first phase featuring a 100-bed cancer hospital equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. The project, estimated at over ₹200 crore, is expected to be completed within two to three years. It will provide free treatment to underprivileged cancer patients, with specialist doctors overseeing patient care.
During the ceremony, Prime Minister Modi highlighted the dual role of religious institutions in India, serving as centers of worship and social service. He commended Bageshwar Dham for its efforts to improve healthcare access, stating, "Our temples, monasteries, and sacred sites have had dual roles as both centers of worship and hubs for scientific and social thought."
Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, the head of Bageshwar Dham, expressed gratitude for the Prime Minister's support. He emphasized the institute's mission to serve humanity and provide quality healthcare to those in need.
This visit underscores the government's commitment to improving healthcare infrastructure in rural areas and leveraging the influence of spiritual centers for societal benefit. The establishment of the Bageshwar Dham Medical and Science Research Institute is poised to make a significant impact on the community by offering accessible medical services.
Following this event, Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to inaugurate the Global Investors Summit in Bhopal, aiming to position Madhya Pradesh as a global investment hub.
The Bageshwar Dham Balaji Temple, dedicated to Lord Hanuman, is a renowned spiritual site in Madhya Pradesh, attracting devotees from across the country. The addition of the medical institute aligns with the temple's tradition of community service and spiritual guidance.
This development is part of a broader effort to integrate spiritual and social services, enhancing the well-being of communities through collaborative initiatives. (agencies)
