The ₹35-crore facility to be commissioned at Tamil Nadu Government Multi Super Speciality Hospital
An advanced robotic surgery centre has been set up at the Tamil Nadu Government Multi Super Speciality Hospital (TNGMSSH), Omandurar. A ₹35-crore worth equipment for robotic surgery was installed and a fully modular operation theatre has been readied at a cost of ₹50 lakh, Health Minister Ma. Subramanian said.
Shortly after inspecting the centre on Wednesday, he said the Chief Minister would inaugurate the centre after the model code of conduct ceases to be in force.
The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
