The wait is almost over for Bihar! With the upcoming All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Darbhanga, the state is on the brink of a healthcare revolution. Approved in September 2020 under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana, AIIMS Darbhanga is a significant step towards boosting quality healthcare and advanced medical education in the region. Estimated at a cost of ₹1,264 crore, this project aims to be completed within the next few years, creating a lasting impact on Bihar’s healthcare landscape.

Situated in Shobhan village near Darbhanga city, AIIMS Darbhanga will cover an impressive 182-acre campus, equipped with a 750-bed hospital, a medical college offering 100 MBBS seats, 60 nursing seats, and an AYUSH hospital. With state-of-the-art facilities, this institution promises to provide high-quality medical care and training, establishing Bihar as a hub for healthcare excellence in India.

In September 2024, the contract for building AIIMS Darbhanga was awarded to HSCC (India) Limited, a subsidiary of NBCC (India) Limited. The project, set to be completed within 36 months, will not only provide advanced healthcare facilities but also create employment for approximately 3,000 people, ranging from medical staff to administrative roles. This influx of job opportunities is expected to give a significant boost to the local economy, making Darbhanga a focal point for healthcare development in the region.

Once operational, AIIMS Darbhanga will offer top-notch medical education and patient care. Its 750-bed hospital will serve thousands of patients, reducing the need for residents to travel out of state for high-quality medical treatment. With specialized care and medical research facilities, this AIIMS will support the development of a healthier Bihar, improving access to healthcare for millions of people.

AIIMS Darbhanga is not only set to transform healthcare for Bihar but also holds great potential for neighboring Nepal. Located just a few hours from the border, AIIMS Darbhanga will provide easier access to advanced medical treatment for Nepalese citizens, reducing the need for long-distance travel to other major Indian cities. From specialized care to emergency services, AIIMS Darbhanga promises to serve as a critical healthcare hub for people in both regions, fostering a new era of cross-border medical collaboration and improving healthcare outcomes for thousands in Nepal.

AIIMS Darbhanga is more than just a medical institution; it’s a beacon of growth and healthcare advancement for Bihar and neighboring states. As construction progresses, the excitement builds for what this institution will mean for the people of Bihar.
