Hyderabad: After the row with the BRS-led Telangana government over the conditions in the century old Osmania hospital, the Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Sunday appealed to the administration to maintain the cleanliness of the Hussain Sagar.
“….Hussain Sagar is the gift to the people of Telangana and it is a natural resource. Mother lake which is nurturing so many sailors and sailors who practiced in the lake have gone to national and international levels and have won awards… Government should make all efforts to keep the lake clean. Also, it is not only the duty of the Army and the government but also the duty of people,” she said after her attendance at a Sailing event held at the lake.
During her visit to the Osmania Hospital, she visited all the hospital wards and interacted with the patients and the doctors and para-medical staff.
The Governor visited the century-old hospital a few days after she voiced concern over its condition. This had attracted criticism from health minister T Harish Rao who alleged that she was speaking “like a BJP spokesperson”.
