GHMC Commissioner Dana Kishore distributed blankets to the needy at Basava Tarakam Cancer Hospital in Bajara Hills. Additional Commissioner Harichandana, Zonal Commissioner Mushraf Ali were also present. The bone-chilling weather has thrown the citizens out of gear. When citizens are wrapped in winter gear, there are street dwellers who cannot afford a blanket and live a miserable life.
There are people living in the open in different areas of twin cities. They sleep on footpaths during nights. So many attendants of patients also rest outside the hospitals and some people take shelter at bus stops. The GHMC is shifting all these people to the night shelters. GHMC officials distributed blankets to the street dwellers on Wednesday night. Speaking on the occasion, the commissioner said the GHMC set up 15 night shelters to shield the homeless.

Shelters at Maternity Hospital in King Kothi, Mahaveer Hospital in Masab Tank, Niloufer Hospital are functioning now. Shelters at ENT and Osmania Hospital are in progress,” Dana Kishore said.
