Telangana Chief Minister (CM) K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) was rushed to Yashoda Hospital, Somajiguda on Friday, 11 March, for a medical check after he complained of radiating pain on his left side.
Later, Dr K Pramod Kumar, chief cardiologist at Yashoda Hospital confirmed that Rao does not have any heart ailments and experienced left arm pain because he has mild cervical spondylosis.

The CM's personal physician Dr MV Rao said, "We do regular checkups for CM KCR in the month of February every year."
Dr MV Rao further informed that the CM was weak for the past two days and suffering from slight pain in left arm and left leg.
He added, "As a part of routine checkup we are conducting CT scan and Angiogram and we will decide what to do depending on the report. CM is stable. This is just a preventive check-up.”
