The decision was taken at a cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit.

"The government while fulfilling its earlier assurance to provide free dialysis procedure for the poor has given its nod to a proposal to set up state-of-the-art dialysis centres in six Delhi government's major hospitals," said Dikshit.
