AAI norms may derail Telangana government’s grand Chest Hospital plans
HYDERABAD: The Telangana government may have grand plans for construction of a super-speciality hospital with a skyscraper of about 30 floors, but the Airports Authority of India (AAI) restrictions on height of buildings in Erragadda’s 62-acre Chest hospital may throw a spanner in the works.
Chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has reportedly asked health department officials to check height restrictions in the area as it was about three to four km from Begumpet airport and close to the flight funnel, where only ground and two floors are permitted.
KCR has laid foundation for a super-speciality hospital in Warangal with 33 floors, which could be the tallest building in the second biggest city of Telangana, and a helipad on the terrace of the building.
