Khammam Witnessed Rapid Development Under BRS Rule: Harish Rao
Rapid Development | Khammam: Health Minister T Harish Rao today said that the erstwhile Khammam district has witnessed rapid development under the rule of the BRS government.
Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao has sanctioned Government Medical Colleges for Kothagudem and Khammam. Students could study MBBS by paying just Rs 10,000. There were 2900 seats before the creation of separate Telangana, while there were 8000 MBBS seats now in Telangana, the minister said.
Harish Rao along with Transport Minister Puvvada Ajay Kumar laid the foundation stone for the construction of a 50-bedded Community Health Centre to be built at a cost of Rs.10.50 crore at Kallur and a 30-bedded CHC to be built with Rs 7.50 crore at Penuballi in the district on Monday.
The Chief Minister has the credit of setting up 17 medical colleges in just two years besides many Nursing Colleges. Medical infrastructure has been developed extensively across all government hospitals, the minister said addressing a gathering.
Soon Rs 3 lakh would be given to women under the Griha Lakshmi scheme. Telangana government was the only government in the country to implement schemes like Kalyana Lakshmi, Arogya Lakshmi, Mission Bhagiratha, KCR Kits, and others for the benefit of women, Harish Rao said.
Kanti Velugu was launched to treat eye-related ailments in the public. So far eye tests for 1.17 crore people have been conducted. There was no household in Telangana that was not covered by the government schemes, even Congress and BJP leaders were also getting benefitted from them, he said.
