Gadchiroli, Maharashtra, November 10, 2025: In a momentous step towards social transformation, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis today laid the foundation stone for a world-class Educational and Medical Complex at Rajeshwarpalli, Sironcha taluka, Gadchiroli district.
This ambitious, ₹1,468-crore project - spanning an impressive 264 acres in Maharashtra’s southernmost frontier, promises to redefine the landscape of healthcare and education for this historically underserved region.
A Vision Forged Through Collaboration
Conceptualized under the resolute developmental vision of Chief Minister Fadnavis and championed by Shri Rana Suryawanshi, Director of Rana Shipping Company and noted social worker, the initiative stands as a testament to the transformative power of public-private partnership.
The complex will house a 350-bed multispecialty hospital, a medical college, and advanced educational institutions offering professional courses in engineering, dentistry, and nursing. Management of the facility will be overseen by Ruby Hospital and Wellness Pvt. Ltd., reinforcing its commitment to excellence.
Catalyzing Inclusive Growth and Opportunity
Once primarily defined by the challenges of Naxalism, Gadchiroli district is entering a dynamic new phase of reform and progress under Chief Minister Fadnavis’s leadership.
The Chief Minister addressed the audience with a resolute message: “This foundation stone laying marks the dawn of inclusive development, ensuring healthcare, education, and employment reach even the remotest geographies of Maharashtra.”
He commended Shri Rana Suryawanshi’s vision, noting that such a strategic infrastructure project demonstrates the enduring impact of constructive collaboration.
Regional Transformation and Strategic Connectivity
The new complex is poised to serve not only the people of Gadchiroli but also neighboring districts and bordering states of Telangana and Chhattisgarh.
For decades, the region’s residents have faced the hardship of traveling to major cities - Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Hyderabad, for specialized medical care and advanced education. This facility will eliminate that need, underpinning Gadchiroli’s rise as a regional hub and engine of growth.
Chief Minister Fadnavis further announced Gadchiroli’s emergence as a Green Steel Hub, signaling accelerated development and integration into Maharashtra’s mainstream growth story.
Commitment to Progress
Shri Rana Suryawanshi expressed deep gratitude for the Chief Minister’s support, emphasizing that this initiative will bring transformative relief and opportunity to the people of Gadchiroli.
“It is a matter of pride to witness the rise of such a modern, world-class facility in Sironcha. We remain steadfast in our commitment to the district’s long-term progress,” he stated.
