By GlobalDataAccording to public works department representatives, three contractors are working on the project concurrently to finish it before the deadline.
The hospital’s three blocks are being constructed by around 1,000 workers.
An outpatient treatment centre and administrative unit will be located in one block of the building, while an intensive care unit, surgical wards, X-ray and scan units, and an inpatient facility will be located in each of the other two blocks.
Each floor will feature super-speciality departments and modular operating rooms.
In addition, the hospital will house a laboratory, blood bank and library.
The foundation stone for the $28m (Rs2.3bn) hospital was laid in March 2022 to cater to patients, particularly those from south Chennai.
The facility will feature two systems to recycle grey water.
