Indian Red Cross Society State president A. Sridhar Reddy on Tuesday announced that IRCS would construct a cancer hospital in Srikakulam as many patients were facing troubles due to lack of treatment for the dreaded disease in the region.
Along with Srikakulam Collector J. Nivas and Superintendent of Police Amit Bardar, he formally inaugurated a State-wide cycle rally as part of the centenary celebrations of IRCS which was established in 1920. The rally, which began simultaneously in all 13 districts, would culminate on March 25 at Amaravati where Governor and IRCS State Chairman Biswa Bhusan Harichandan would receive the volunteers.
