In a significant move to boost the local economy and nightlife, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy announced that businesses and hotels in Hyderabad can now remain open until 1 AM, extending their operational hours by two hours. This decision comes as a relief to business owners who had previously been required to close by 11 PM, a rule strictly enforced by the police.
The strict enforcement had led to numerous actions against violators and drew criticism from political parties and business owners alike. Police had been vigilant in ensuring that establishments shut down on time, even registering cases against those who flouted the rule. Night-time loitering was also strictly monitored, further fueling discontent among locals and business operators.
Addressing the issue in the Assembly, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy announced the relaxation, which he described as good news for traders. He acknowledged that the extended hours would require additional efforts from the police to maintain law and order during the extended nightlife hours. This includes deploying extra forces and increasing surveillance to prevent any untoward incidents.
The extension of business hours is expected to generate additional revenue for the cosmopolitan city, enhancing its vibrant nightlife and making it more attractive to both residents and visitors. This move aligns with the city’s growing reputation as a bustling urban center.
In addition to the extended business hours, the Chief Minister also announced plans for a new Osmania Hospital. The new hospital will be constructed on 30 acres of the Goshamahal Stadium. This decision follows concerns raised by health sector organizations and doctors regarding the dilapidated state of the current Osmania Hospital building.
The new hospital will be built without demolishing the old structure, ensuring that the historic building remains intact while providing modern healthcare facilities at the new location. This development is expected to significantly improve healthcare services in the region, addressing the concerns of both medical professionals and patients.
These announcements highlight the government’s commitment to improving the city’s infrastructure and economy.
