On World Mental Health Day on Friday, the Maharashtra Institute of Mental Health (MIMH) laid the foundation stone for a day care centre in Yerawada for the rehabilitation of mentally ill patients.
Director of MIMH Dr Alka Pawar said that its earlier centre at Sassoon General Hospital premises was a cramped one. Though the 12-acre plot was in the possession of MIMH since 1994, it was only this year that the institute has been promised a generous grant of more than a crore. Acting dean of SGH Dr Nirmala Borade participated in the event. She checked several posters that were displayed at the exhibition held at Sassoon hospital. TIE
