BRS alleges only five per cent progress in two years at TIMS-Alwal

BRS leader Manne Krishank accused the Telangana government of delaying the Alwal TIMS hospital, claiming construction progressed by just five per cent in nearly two years. He questioned healthcare priorities, citing delays at other government hospital projects across Telangana

Hyderabad: BRS leader Manne Krishank accused the Congress government of delaying the completion of the Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (TIMS) hospital at Alwal. He said only five percent of the work progressed in nearly two years.

Accompanied by BRS leaders from the Cantonment area, Krishank visited the hospital and recalled that Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and Special Secretary Vikas Raj, during a visit in January 2025, had announced that 90 per cent of the work was complete and the facility would be fully operational by August 31, 2025.

However, Health Minister Damodar Rajanarasimha, during his visit on November 10, 2026, again said that 95 per cent of the work had been completed and the hospital would be made available to the public soon, Krishank pointed out. He said the two announcements indicated that the government made only five per cent progress in the intervening period.

Questioning the government’s commitment to public healthcare, he asked why Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy was not showing the same concern for government hospitals as for the corporate hospital owned by his family members.

The BRS leader also cited the delay in making TIMS Sanathnagar fully operational and the postponement of the Warangal super-speciality hospital project.

Former corporation chairman Gajjela Nagesh, leader Nivedita, former Cantonment Board members, division presidents and other senior BRS leaders participated in the visit.
