Shankar Rao discharged from hospital

Former minister and Secunderabad Cantonment MLA Dr P Shanker Rao, who was undergoing treatment for several days, has been discharged from the Banjara Hills Care Hospital here on Wednesday.

It may be recalled that Dr Shanker Rao has been undergoing treatment following his arrest by the Malkajgiri police in connection with the Greenfield Lands issue. He reportedly developed health problems when the police took him into custody from his home and shifted him to Malkajgiri Police Station.

When the MLA complained of chest pain, the police shifted him to Gandhi Hospital and later to Care Hospital at Banjara Hills.
