While asked about whether the AMRI group of hospitals is interested to set up an own unit or not, Rupak Barua said, there is a massive crisis when it comes to specialist doctors all over the country, so for us setting up a new infrastructure in Tripura is a bit difficult in this point of time but we are hopeful of doing so in a lesser extent in the beginning.
