CM lays the foundation stone for the new building of Osmania Hospital.

Hyderabad: Chief Minister Revanth Reddy laid the foundation stone for the construction of a new building for Osmania Hospital. On Friday afternoon, a Bhoomi Poojan ceremony was held for the new Osmania Hospital building, which will be constructed near the Goshamahal Stadium. For decades, Osmania Hospital has been serving people from the combined Andhra Pradesh, as well as from Karnataka, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, and other states. However, due to overcrowding of patients, the need for better facilities, and the development of infrastructure, the Telangana government has decided to build a new building for Osmania Hospital. While the hospital is currently located at Afzalgunj, the Congress government laid the foundation stone for the new building at Goshamahal Stadium. CM Revanth Reddy instructed the officials to ensure that the building is constructed to meet the needs for at least the next 100 years.

Along with CM Revanth Reddy, Deputy CM Bhatti Vikramarka, Ministers Damodar Rajanarasimha, Ponnam Prabhakar, Komatireddy Venkata Reddy, and other senior officials attended the event. CM’s advisor V. Narendra Reddy, government advisor K. Keshavarao, government chief secretary Shanti Kumari, Hyderabad Mayor Gadwal Vijayalakshmi, MP Asaduddin Owaisi, and Rajya Sabha member Anil Kumar Yadav also attended the event.

The new Osmania Hospital building will be constructed over an area of 32 lakh square feet, with a capacity of 2,000 beds. The project is estimated to cost between Rs. 2500 crores and Rs. 2700 crores, and CM Revanth Reddy laid the foundation stone for it on Friday. The new building will include ICU wards, all types of super-specialty medical services, and diagnostic services to cater to nearly 5,000 patients daily. The government is also taking steps to ensure that robotic surgeries and other advanced services are available. For more updates, visit Vaartha.
