Rajasthan is advocating for the establishment of a new NIMHANS (National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences) within the state. The proposal highlights the growing need for improved mental healthcare infrastructure in India.
Rajasthan is making a strong case for the establishment of a new NIMHANS within its borders. The state government argues that the addition of a national-level mental health institute would significantly bolster the availability of specialized mental healthcare services in the region. Currently, NIMHANS operates a single branch in Bengaluru, Karnataka. The proposed new institute in Rajasthan would aim to address the growing demand for mental health services across the country.
