Peddapalli: IT Minister Duddilla Sridhar Babu suggested that the surroundings of the dialysis centre should be kept clean and the officials should be vigilant and give high priority to sanitation management as there is a risk of infection.

The Minister directed the authorities to take steps to ensure that stock of necessary equipment is available in advance based on the number of patients receiving dialysis services.
