Hyderabad: In a major step toward upgrading Telangana’s healthcare infrastructure, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy announced the addition of nearly 7,000 beds across five upcoming government super-speciality hospitals, scheduled to be operational from December 9, 2025. 

The announcement was made during the inauguration of AIG Hospitals at Banjara Hills, where the Chief Minister also made a heartfelt appeal to doctors, both within India and abroad, to contribute to the state’s healthcare system as part of their social responsibility.

According to TOI, doctors who studied in Hyderabad and Telangana but are now practising abroad, especially in the US and other countries, can give back to the state by offering their services for at least a week when they visit home," the CM said. "The state govt will create a platform for voluntary registration of corporate doctors working in India and overseas to serve in govt hospitals," he said.

Revanth Reddy emphasised that this effort not only offers a meaningful opportunity to give back but could also provide deeper professional satisfaction to doctors serving their communities.

He highlighted that doctors based in the US, UK, and other countries often return home to visit their families, and even a single in-person consultation during such visits can significantly impact patients. “That one consultation can help set a treatment course and lead to further digital follow-ups,” he said, reports the Hindu.

Mr. Reddy shared details of an ambitious plan to transform public health infrastructure in Telangana, announcing that five major government hospitals are currently under development and expected to be operational by December 2025. The upcoming facilities include the redevelopment of Osmania General Hospital in Goshamahal, new Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (TIMS) campuses in Alwal, Sanathnagar, and LB Nagar, the expansion of Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS), and the construction of a super-speciality hospital in Warangal.

He confirmed that the three TIMS facilities, the expanded NIMS, and the Warangal super-speciality hospital are all scheduled to be completed and operational by December 2025.

Underscoring the Congress-led government's commitment to human development, the Chief Minister highlighted major allocations in this year’s budget, with a renewed focus on health and education. A total of ₹11,500 crore has been earmarked for the health sector, while ₹21,500 crore has been allocated to strengthen education.

The event also marked a significant milestone for AIG Hospitals, which inaugurated its new Banjara Hills facility. Dr. D. Nageshwar Reddy, Chairman of AIG Hospitals, shared that the expansion was a response to growing demand from residents of Secunderabad and central Hyderabad, who have long faced travel barriers to access specialized care.

Reflecting on the 25-year journey of AIG Hospitals, which began as a 300-bed gastroenterology-focused facility in Somajiguda, Dr. Reddy recounted a pivotal moment marked by a visit from former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy.

According to the Hindu, “Seeing the overcrowding at our Somajiguda facility, he told us, ‘We will give you land, go and build the best hospital in the world,’” Dr. Reddy recalled his conversation with the former Chief Minister.

Today, AIG stands as a nationally acclaimed institution with over 1,000 scientific papers, contributions to 50 medical textbooks, and more than 1,500 trained medical professionals. It continues to pioneer innovations in gastroenterology and other medical disciplines.
