Hyderabad: A two-judge bench of the Telangana High Court, consisting of Acting Chief Justice Sujoy Paul and Justice Dr. G. Radha Rani, has instructed the State’s Health, Medical & Family Welfare Department to submit a comprehensive counter in response to a public interest litigation (PIL) regarding the recruitment of medical and paramedical staff in government hospitals across Telangana.
The court addressed a PIL where the petitioner argued that the authorities have failed to comply with a Supreme Court ruling mandating the establishment of district hospitals, Community Health Centres, and Primary Health Centres, as well as addressing the issue of numerous vacant positions in existing hospitals.
