We are delighted to share that our distinguished Members of the Board – Dr. Srinath Reddy (Founding President & Distinguished Professor, PHFI) and Mr. Srini Raju (Chairman, iLabs Group), had the honour of meeting the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Telangana, Shri Revanth Reddy garu, last week.
Our leadership apprised him about the recent granting of Deemed-to-be-University status to the PHFI Institute of Public Health Sciences, with its main campus in Hyderabad along with constituent units at Bhubaneswar and Bengaluru.
Hon’ble CM warmly welcomed the development and appreciated PHFI’s continued contribution to strengthening public health education, research, and systems in Telangana and across India. He encouraged the Institute (currently IIPH-H, soon to transition under PHFI – IPHS Deemed University) to support the government’s efforts to strengthen public sector health services at all levels of care. At his direction, the Chief Secretary and Prof. Srinath Reddy met the next day and proposed to establish a strong platform for collaborative partnership whereon the Institute can assist the government’s initiatives through training, research and evaluation.
This moment marks a significant step in our journey to become locally rooted, nationally impactful, and globally respected in the field of public health.
