HYDERABAD: The Telangana government has appointed K Ramesh Reddy, Principal of Government Medical College, Yadadri Bhongir, as the in-charge Vice-Chancellor of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences, Warangal.

Before being posted to Bhongir, Ramesh Reddy served as in-charge Director of Medical Education for six years from 2017 to 2023, playing a key role in the State’s Covid-19 response. He earlier served as Superintendent of Niloufer Hospital.
