According to The Hindu, Mr Subramanian said that new buildings for government hospitals, primary health centres and sub-health centres were being built at the cost of ₹141.05 crore in the district. He said that the construction of the emergency wing and the maternity and childcare centre at the government hospital in Thuraiyur had been completed, and the process of procuring medical equipment was under way. It would be commissioned within a month.

In addition, the Minister noted that fourteen health centers in the district had received National Quality Assurance Standards (NQAS) certification, while five government hospitals had achieved the LaQshya certification, which focuses on improving the quality of maternity services.

During his surprise visit to the government hospitals in Srirangam and Lalgudi, Mr Subramanian inspected general and maternity wards, engaging with patients to inquire about the quality of care provided by doctors.

With improved facilities, the hospital can better serve the growing population of Srirangam and surrounding areas.

Many officials attended the event, including Collector M. Pradeep Kumar, Mayor M. Anbazhagan, Corporation Commissioner V. Saravanan, City Health Officer T. Manivannan, and Dean of Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Government Hospital Arshiya Begum, among others.

This initiative is part of a broader strategy by the state government to enhance health services and infrastructure.
