(i)  Establishment  of  new  All  India  Institute  of  Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and (ii) Upgradation of Government Medical Colleges (GMCs). Setting up of 22 new AIIMS and 75 projects of upgradation of GMCs have been approved under the Scheme.

Funds for setting up of AIIMS or upgradation of GMCs are released to Executing Agencies engaged for the  project,  and  not  to  States/UTs.

The  details  of  year-wise  fund  released under PMSSY is given in Annexure-I .    As  can  be  seen,  expenditure under the scheme has increased over the years.
