Various people's organisations along with CPI have been agitating against the decision for the last 12 days at the maternity hospital building. The expert committee appointed by the government led by the Director of Medical Education (Academic) Dr Satya Varaprasad, public health additional director Dr KVSS Anil Kumar and others visited the hospital on Friday.
