If a donor offered to construct a block in a hospital and the amount of such construction is more than Rs.5 million (50 lakh), the block would be named as per the wishes of the donor subject to the approval of the state government. For a gift of equipment, the donor's name would be conspicuously displayed in the concerned health institution.

Donations from individuals, firms, corporation, society, trust will be allowed to be accepted by health authorities. A proper agreement for the donation would be made, Hooda said.

Though the authorities have been asked to keep proper records of all donations made, Hooda said all information pertaining to a donor and his gift would be handled with respect and given confidential treatment as allowed under law.

Health officials said the maternity wing in the existing government hospital at the community health centre at Nangal Choudhary in Mahendragarh district of south-west Haryana is being constructed with community help.
