The State of Telangana has created history opening nine new medical colleges in different districts in one go.
Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao virtually inaugurated the medical colleges set up in Karimnagar, Kamareddy, Khammam, Jayashankar Bhupalpalli, Kumrambheem Asifabad, Nirmal, Rajanna Sircilla, Vikarabad and Jangaon districts on Friday. This follows the inauguration of eight medical colleges in different districts last year and the State is moving ahead towards the target of setting up one medical college each in all the 33 districts.
The Chief Minister said the inauguration of new medical colleges would ensure 10,000 doctors completing their medical degrees every year and this would, in turn, lead to a revolution in the medical sector.
