Pune, 18th May 2026: Pune, May 17: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday inaugurated the Apulki Medical Centre in Baner and described the project as a major step toward strengthening affordable cancer treatment facilities in the state.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Fadnavis said, “Cancer cases have increased significantly in recent years and the cost of treatment is very high. This hospital, developed under the PPP model, will provide major relief to patients and their families.”
The hospital has been developed jointly by Apulki Healthcare Private Limited and Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.
He further said, “The Apulki Medical Centre will become a milestone in the healthcare sector. Similar hospitals can be developed across Maharashtra in the future using this model.”
The Chief Minister also appreciated Apulki Healthcare for providing treatment under CGHS rates and government healthcare schemes. “Affordable and quality healthcare should reach common citizens, and this initiative is an important step in that direction,” he said.
The Baner-based project includes a 150-bed super-speciality hospital focused on cancer and cardiac care. The facility has been designed with advanced medical infrastructure and modern treatment technologies while keeping services affordable for patients from Pune and across Maharashtra.
