Telangana: Will build trauma care center at toll plaza

Hyderabad: ADP India in collaboration with the Telangana government has begun construction of a state-of-the-art trauma care centre at Koralapahad toll plaza in Nalgonda district. The trauma care centre is expected to provide immediate treatment to accident victims, significantly reducing the time between injury and care. The foundation stone for the centre was laid in the presence of Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and Nalgonda Collector Narayana Reddy. The facility will be spread over 6500 square feet and aims to provide immediate medical assistance to accident victims, ensuring that critically injured persons receive the immediate care they need.
