Aarey Milk Colony officials have shortlisted Kurla’s Aryan Medical and Educational Trust to revive Aarey Hospital, which has been nearly dysfunctional for over a decade. Details of the plan have been forwarded to the state dairy development department, and the approval is expected to arrive by next week.
Maharashtra’s dairy development department had called for an expression of interest in the matter in October. “We received eight names. Out of them, the selected trust fulfilled all the requirements and had the most experience in the medical field (17 years),” said Balasaheb Wakchaure, chief executive officer of Aarey Milk Colony.
