Following the questions raised by the Union Health Ministry’s Central TB division about the presence of a total drug resistant TB (TDR-TB) in the city, the BMC is now working on multiple projects in its attempt to take stock of the TB situation.

Apart from the anti-TB blueprint that the BMC announced, a plan to revamp the Sewree TB Hospital and to start a high-tech TB diagnosis centre similar to the one at JJ Hospital, are on the agenda.
