Gorakhpur (UP), Jul 22 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached Gorakhpur on Friday to lay the foundation stone of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), the media reported.

The prime minister is also expected to initiate the renovation work of a fertiliser factory that has remained shut for the past three decades, according to media reports. 
 
The Union Cabinet on Wednesday had approved the setting up of AIIMS under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY) at an estimated cost of Rs. 1,011 crore, media reported.
