Soon, Cama Hospital to offer full range of IVF services
Mumbai: After offering basic fertility treatment for the last 18 months, the state govt-run Cama Hospital near CST will soon upgrade to provide complete in-vitro fertility (IVF) treatment for women for free. "We have got permission to start IVF treatment such as embryo implantation, and are in the process of giving final touches to our laboratory," said Medical Superintendent Dr Tushar Palve. The complete IVF services, he added, should start within a month. In April 2024, the hospital became the first govt hospital in the city to offer basic fertility treatment such as intrauterine insemination (or artificial insemination in which sperm is placed directly into a woman's uterus) and ovulation induction (use of medication to stimulate the ovaries to release one or more eggs). Over 100 women were provided such treatment, resulting in 17 pregnancies since April 2024. Between April and December 2024, 78 women were provided treatment that resulted in eight pregnancies. "In 2025, we treated 35 women and nine were urine-positive pregnancies," said Dr Palve. As women from other parts of the state and neighbouring states also attend Cama Hospital's infertility treatment OPD, deliveries in many cases didn't take place in the hospital. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Efficient Cleaning for Compliant Warehouses SearchMore Learn More Undo "In just over five months, the Cama centre recorded 379 IVF outpatient consultations, reflecting growing trust in our fertility treatments and specialised care," said a state medical education department official. "Cama is the first state govt hospital to bridge the gap between technology and accessibility, making the dream of parenthood possible for many," he added. The country's second test-tube baby—and the state's first—was born in BMC-run KEM Hospital, Parel in 1986. After a gap of 39 years, the hospital will soon start a full-fledged IVF clinic. While KEM's neighbouring Wadia Hospital has an IVF clinic, civic-run Sion Hospital is also likely to start one soon. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

Erode Corporation to auction modern abattoir at Vairapalayam
The Corporation will soon auction the modern cow slaughterhouse, constructed at a cost of ₹75 lakh at Vairapalayam, and has outlined various guidelines for its operation and maintenance by the contractor. Established on a 10,500 sq ft site under the Infrastructure Gap Filling Fund 2016–17 in Zone I, the facility is intended to operate under the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) scheme for the slaughter of large animals (cows). The Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board has granted Consent to Operate, and the facility is now ready for use. Accordingly, the civic body has decided to invite public tenders or conduct an auction to identify a contractor to run the facility. The Corporation has stipulated several conditions for the operator. The contractor is permitted to charge only ₹100 per cow for slaughtering and is also required to serve meat shops within the Corporation limits. Slaughtering must be conducted strictly within the designated space on the premises, and waste must be disposed of within three hours. If the contractor fails to do so, Corporation workers will remove the waste and recover the charges from the operator. Slaughtering is permitted only between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m., and again from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. It is prohibited on designated holidays such as Gandhi Jayanti and Mahavir Jayanti. The operator will bear the electricity charges and must ensure that the premises are properly cleaned, washed, and maintained. An official said that the agenda for the auction was tabled and approved at the council meeting held in May, and the auction process will begin shortly.
