TDP files complaint against Minister Appalaraju
The Kurnool I Town circle inspector who had gone to Hyderabad to serve a notice to Telugu Desam Party president Nara Chandrababu Naidu on Sunday morning returned to the city on the instructions of the higher officials in the Police Department and the dilemma is continuing whether to serve the notice or not. Meanwhile, Telugu Desam Party State secretary P. Ravi Kumar and another leader D. James filed two separate complaints in I Town and III Town police stations alleging that Animal Husbandry Minister Sidiri Appalaraju had spoken in a similar way in a TV debate prior to Mr. Chandrababu Naidu about the presence of N440K COVID virus and that it was 10 to 15 times more virulent than other variants. Following this, the official is believed to have been asked not to serve the notice to Mr. Naidu, as a similar action would be required against the Minister. Also, the maintainability of the case in the courts was being checked and it is learnt the police were asked to wait till further orders on this. None in the Kurnool police department spoke about the serving of the notice to Mr. Naidu.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
