Homoeopathic Dispensary

The foundation stone of the building where the dispensary is presently housed was laid by Shri Shankar Prasad, the then Chief Commissioner of Delhi, on May 1, 1949. A two-storeyed building on the south-west corner of the Mission premises was constructed and it was opened by the then Hon’ble Health Minister, Rajkumari Amrit Kaur on August 27, 1950. While the ground floor housed outdoor homeopathic dispensary, the first floor was used for library (This is the corner building on our campus, where still the homeopathy dispensary works out of. The Axis bank works out of part of the building). Later the library was shifted to the building next to the dispensary.
