With an aim to help tuberculosis patients recover quickly, Mr. T. Harish Rao, the Finance and Health Minister of Telangana, announced to give a nutrition kit for every TB patient in the Siddipet Assembly Constituency.
On the 17th of October, Monday, Mr. T. Harish Rao announced to provide the nutrition kit at his own expenses to 265 identified TB patients in the constituency.
In regard to this, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) Health Minister Mr. T. Harish Rao has instructed the health department officials to prepare the kit. The instructed kit would have 30 eggs, one kilogram dal, three kg of rice, and 300 grams of cow ghee. The kit has been named after the Minister as the THR (Thanneeru Harish Rao) Nutrition Kit by health department officials.
Furthermore, the kit would be distributed to each of the patients for at least six months.
Since most of the TB patients were hailing from poor financial backgrounds and they lack awareness on the importance of taking healthy food, the Minister said. The Health Minister said that it came to his notice that they could not afford to buy nutritious food which actually helps them to recover soon.
Mr. T. Harish Rao said that the support would boost the morale of the patients. According to the district health department, there were 902 TB patients across the Siddipet district. The TB patients and their family members have thanked the Minister for his concern for them.
