K Kavitha says Telangana's government hospitals and schools are not working well enough.

She used government information obtained through an RTI request to discuss infant deaths.

She claimed that about 4,000 children die each year because the government does not provide enough care.

The data she cited recorded 1,046 infant deaths in Hyderabad during 2024-25.

She also said some healthcare money has not been spent and that hospitals are crowded.

Kavitha raised concerns about delayed Aarogyasri payments and health programs without funding.

She said TRS leaders will visit hospitals across Telangana and document their problems.

She also said her party may help build girls' toilets in schools and will contest the Khairatabad by-election.
