Don't forget to take medicines on Tirumala trip

Suffering from BP, Sugar or any other disease? If you are on a visit Tirumala, don't forget to take medicines along with you.

Hospitals in Tirumala are facing an acute shortage of medicines. You may get medicines for ordinary ailments but as for specialist medicines, they may not simply be available.

Recently, two pilgrims, including a girl, were bitten by a snake while waiting for their turn in the Divya Darshan queue lines. Since there were no medicines atop the Tirumala hill, they had to be rushed all the way to the Ruia hospital in Tirupati to save their lives. 

Aswini hospital, Central hospital and several others hospitals are facing scarcity of medicines.
