Hyderabad: Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy has expressed concern over repeated food poisoning cases in government and residential schools.

Speaking at a meeting with district Collectors at the Secretariat on Friday, January 10, he questioned why such incidents continue despite an increase in diet and maintenance funds.
