Patna Turns 21 Utility Centres into Ward-Level Health OPDs

27 Jun 2025 CW Team

Patna Smart City Limited is converting 21 public-utility buildings into outpatient clinics so that every municipal ward has a walk-in point for primary care. Each centre will treat common ailments, run maternal-and-child check-ups, give vaccinations, distribute essential medicines and carry out routine tests such as blood and anaemia screening. Yoga classes, family-planning advice and communicable-disease awareness sessions will add a preventive dimension.

The sites—ranging from Rajendra Nagar Road 1 and Beur Mod to Chitkohra, SK Puri, Kadam Kuan and Khajekalan—have been chosen so that no resident is far from help, particularly women and poorer households who often struggle to reach the city’s overcrowded civil hospitals. By moving everyday cases out of tertiary facilities, the scheme should free scarce beds and doctors’ time for more serious conditions while strengthening community trust in the urban health network.

Services will be offered free of charge, and the corporation expects the centres to be operating within weeks once staffing and equipment are in place. Officials say the model could be expanded if demand rises, forming the backbone of a neighbourhood-based health system for the state capital.
