Hindustan Zinc Limited, the world’s largest integrated zinc producer and one of the top 5 silver producers globally, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) towards the redesign, upgradation and development of the Rabindra Nath Tagore (RNT) Hospital, Udaipur.
The MoU was signed between Arun Misra, CEO and Wholetime Director, Hindustan Zinc and Vipin Mathur, Principal of RNT hospital in the presence of other senior officials.
The organisation has also undertaken commitment to invest in setting up a state-of-the-art Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory (Cath Lab) at this Hospital. This initiative is focused on strengthening public healthcare infrastructure and building a long-term community asset for the residents of Udaipur – Zinc City.
As part of this collaboration, Hindustan Zinc is supporting the comprehensive Master Plan for the holistic transformation of Rabindra Nath Tagore (RNT) Hospital into a future-ready, multi-specialty healthcare facility with best-in-class technology and fostering an environment conducive to research and development.
The project is expected to significantly improve access to advanced and affordable medical care for residents of Udaipur and neighbouring districts, enabling timely diagnosis and treatment.
A major highlight will be the introduction of a state-of-the-art Cath Lab specially designed for minimally invasive, image-guided cardiac procedures. The Cath Lab will enable critical interventions such as coronary angiography, angioplasty, stent placement and emergency management of heart attacks, significantly improving patient outcomes and response time.
In addition, the initiative aims to strategically position Udaipur as a prominent medical tourism destination by leveraging the enhanced capabilities and infrastructure of the upgraded hospital.
