MUMBAI: IT services firm Wipro Ltd has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Maharashtra government, under which it will repurpose one of its information technology campuses located in Hinjewadi, Pune, to a 450-bed intermediary care covid-19 hospital in four weeks.

The Bengaluru-based company will hand over the hospital to the state government by 30 May. The hospital will be converted back to an IT facility after a year.

The 450-bed hospital, which will admit moderate cases, will include 12 beds to stabilise critical patients before shifting them to a tertiary care facility.

This is an independent, isolated covid-19 dedicated complex that also includes 24 well-appointed rooms to accommodate doctors and medical staff.
