CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: A historic beginning has been made towards turning Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s Vidisha parliamentary constituency into a major centre for advanced health services. Union Minister for Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare and Rural Development and local MP Shivraj Singh Chouhan, along with Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Jitendra Singh, today formally inaugurated the Cancer Day-Care Centre at Atal Bihari Vajpayee Government Medical College, Vidisha.
