The Karnataka government has announced that the tender process for constructing a new Employees' State Insurance (ESI) hospital in Udupi district is officially underway. The tender, issued under the ESI scheme, seeks to procure a modern facility that will cater to the medical needs of employees in the district.
Udupi has seen growing demand for specialized healthcare services, and the new ESI hospital is expected to fill a critical gap in the region’s medical infrastructure.
