BRS MLA and former minister T Harish Rao expressed serious concern after rainwater entered the Koti ENT Hospital, flooding the premises up to three feet.

He strongly criticised the negligence and inaction of government machinery.

Harish Rao said the hospital drain had been damaged for more than a month, causing dirty water to flow into the

premises.

“Despite repeated complaints from the public, officials failed to take corrective action. Patients and their attendants visiting the hospital have been facing severe inconvenience,” he remarked.

Following heavy rains in Hyderabad yesterday evening, floodwater entered the hospital campus. Condemning the government’s lack of precautionary measures, Harish Rao said public health and safety were being ignored.
