Mysore/Mysuru: Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS) has threatened to lay siege to office of the Dean, Mysore Medical College and Research Institute (MMC&RI), in case he fails to improve facilities at K.R. Hospital within 15 days.
KRRS President Badagalapura Nagendra told media here on Thursday that the Hospital now was in a very bad shape due to lack of maintenance. Toilets stink and the whole area has become a den of unhygienic condition. Around 8,000 people visit this Hospital daily for treatment. In fact, things had improved when KRRS had launched a stir in 2002 but now it has come back to square one. The situation was not good in other Hospitals like Cheluvamba and PKTB Sanitorium that come under MMC&RI. Need of the hour was to bring all Departments under one head on the lines of Victoria Hospital in Bengaluru, he added.
