KTR accuses Congress for neglecting public health
Meanwhile, BRS working president KT Rama Rao visited the Ibrahim Nagar clinic under the Khairatabad constituency and criticised the Congress for neglecting public health and leaving the Basti Dawakhanas in poor condition.
He also pointed out that the staff at the clinics have not been paid for the past 4 months and stated that clinics are not maintaining an adequate supply of the 108 varieties of essential medicines.
He recalled that KCR had established 450 Basti Dawakhanas across Telangana and set up Telangana Diagnostic Centres to provide free medical tests to the public. โUnder KCRโs leadership, we launched four TIMS (Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences) hospitals, each with 1,000 beds for the urban poor, and initiated the 2,000-bed NIMS expansion project. Our government completed 90 per cent of the work, but this government hasnโt even finished the remaining 10 per cent,โ he remarked.

He demanded that the Congress government establish an additional 450 clinics to prove their sincerity towards the public and complete the pending works at TIMS hospitals at the earliest. โOtherwise, we will organise protests in front of the TIMS hospitals soon,โ he warned.
KTR stated that a detailed report on the deteriorating health conditions in Telangana will soon be submitted to the state government under the supervision of former Health Minister Dr T Rajaiah and urged the government to release pending salaries of Anganwadi workers and implement the promised pay hike immediately.
KTR on MLA Danam Nagender being in Congressโ star campaigner list
KTR dubbed the AICC as โAll India Corruption Committeeโ after Khairtabad MLA Danam Nagender appeared on the Congressโ โStar Campaignersโ list amid defection accusations.
โWhile the Congress shamelessly claims that no BRS MLA has joined them, the same AICC includes our MLAโs name in their star campaigner list. This reflects the double standards and moral bankruptcy of the Congress leadership.โ he stated.
