The Telangana government is formulating an alternative plan for the construction of Osmania General Hospital, as authorities identify a new location for the hospital in case of an adverse court ruling.
The construction of Osmania General Hospital has been contentious, with doctors facing difficulties due to the dilapidated state of the current heritage building.
Osmania General Hospital’s bed capacity is currently 1,100, which has decreased due to the evacuation of the old building. The government aims to expand the capacity to over 1,800 beds to better handle the patient load. Medical staff have expressed concerns over the dangerous condition of the building during their working hours.
