A new hospital in Patancheru, built with Rs 300 crore from corporate social responsibility (CSR) funds, is set to be inaugurated by the Chief Minister.
People are asking to name the hospital after Dr. Kishan Rao, a famous environmentalist and doctor who fought against pollution and helped get Rs 567 crore for the community.
Dr. Kishan Rao took legal action to protect the environment and help local farmers.
The Medak MP, M Raghunandan Rao, has promised to support this request.
Many people, including political leaders and intellectuals, agree that the hospital should be named after Dr. Kishan Rao to honor his work.
