Altogether they would have more than 5,000 beds, Rao said, adding they look forward for their participation in building them.

Agarwal informed Rao they have done similar work in countries like Sri Lanka and extended an invitation to the Health Minister and his team to visit the island nation to see the company-built hospital for themselves.

"The CM has asked a team of officers of Health Department led by Health Minister C Laxmareddy to visit Sri Lanka this week-end and study the facilities in the hospital built by Enraf-Nonius," the release added.
