Port Blair, May 27: The PCC President Kuldeep Rai Sharma has strongly recommended for renewal of MOU to be signed between A&N Administration and Amritha Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi for the welfare of the Patients of these islands.

In his letter to the Administrator, Sharma noted that the MOU signed between A&N Administration and Amritha Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi for getting the services of Super Specialists in GBP Hospital has expired in the month of November 2012 but has not been renewed. In the absence of further renewal of the MOU, the monthly visit of Super Specialists from AIMS, Kochi has been stopped.

The PCC President has further intimated the Lt Governor that the visit of such Super Specialists is very much essential for the people of these remote islands as most of them cannot proceed to Mainland for specialized treatment due to various reasons.
