Hyderabad: Telangana former chief minister and BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao, who is currently under treatment at Yashoda Hospitals, Somajiguda, requested people not to visit the hospital at least for the next 10 days owing to the risk of infections along with trouble faced by other patients due to crowds at the hospital.
He delivered a video message in this regard from the hospital bed.
“I urge everyone to not come to the hospital as it will impact traffic flow and also will disturb the hundreds of patients here. Their safety is equally important. Please return to your homes in a disciplined manner. As I live among people, once I get better, we will get to meet each other,” he said.
KCR released the video statement after Siddipet women staged a dharna at Yashoda Hospital as they were denied entry to meet KCR, who is in recovery after his hip replacement surgery.
