Hyderabad: As part of the State government’s efforts to ramp up the existing medical infrastructure and bring healthcare closer to the poor, the government has decided to set up 12 new regional sub-centres across the State.

Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, who held a marathon review meeting on the Covid situation at Pragathi Bhavan here on Monday, suggested the setting up of these regional sub-centres at Siddipet, Wanaparthy, Mahabubabad, Kothagudem, Nagarkurnool, Suryapet, Bhongir, Jagitial, Mancherial, Bhupalpally, Vikarabad and Gadwal with necessary infrastructure to supply medicines to all government hospitals under their purview.
