Regular air-ambulance service from Raipur was inaugurated at Swami Vivekananda Airport Raipur on Thursday.
State Health Minister TS Singh Deo inaugurated the service at the airport.
“Red Bird Aviation, a company based in Delhi has started a permanent air ambulance from Raipur. Earlier, air ambulances from Delhi, Kolkata, Nagpur or similar other places had to be called to Raipur in case of medical emergency. Now this service will be available in Raipur,” Rakesh Sahay, Director Airport, informed.
The airport ambulance counter will be available 24X7. Now patients from Raipur will be able to reach medical hubs like Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kolkata in much shorter span of time.
