Visakhapatnam: The infrastructure at King George Hospital (KGH) will be enhanced further as Adani Gangavaram Port contributes towards it as part of its corporate social responsibility programme.

In connection with it, the port’s management handed over a cheque of Rs 90 lakh to Visakhapatnam district collector Harendhira Prasad. The support is aimed to enhance paediatric healthcare facilities at the hospital.
