TB Hospital
TB and Chest Hospital also known as Erragadda Chest Hospital is a tuberculosis hospital located in Hyderabad, India. The 670-bed hospital is located on 65 acres near Erragadda
History
The Irranuma Palace, now the government Chest Hospital, was built during the time of the sixth Nizam by a noble, Nizamuddin Fakhrul Mulk in 1888 and abandoned it because of a superstition. The palace was donated to be converted into a hospital by the VII Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan. Erramanzil belonged to the same family. Their tombs, Fakhrul Mulk, still exists at SR Nagar.
After Telangana was formed in 2014, the new Chief Minister K C Rao planned to demolish the centuries-old Irranuma Palace and build a new secretariat in its place.
