Hyderabad: The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation’s (GHMC) standing committee has placed before the GHMC to accord approval of the Road Development Plan (RDP) from MJ Market to Bhoolaxmi temple (Muslim Jung Bridge) via Malakunta, Begum Bazar road, for the proposed 30-metre-wide road for the upcoming new Osmania General Hospital (OGH).
The state government had proposed the construction of Osmania General Hospital at the Goshamahal Stadium and develop the surrounding roads, as well as approach roads to the proposed hospital.
Based on the review meeting conducted by the MA&UD principal secretary and after a representation was submitted by BJP MLA T Raja Singh requesting the same, it was found that the road connecting to the proposed Osmania General Hospital from MJ Market, Muslim Jung Bridge, and Darussalam required widening for the free flow of traffic and better connectivity to surrounding roads joining markets.
Around 218 properties are expected to be affected by the move.
