Rohini Kamble, former health committee chairperson wrote to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) in April to take over the Seven Hills Hospital and use its super specialty services and develop it into a medical college. The civic body, however, in its reply to Kamble has stated that owing to litigation and various other issues, it might not be possible.

The hospital's financial status has been in controversy over the last year, following which, Kamble made the suggestion to the BMC, as it would have helped those residing in Andheri East, Powai and Kurla areas. At present, there are hardly any super specialty hospitals in the locality to cater to the medical needs of citizens.
