GUNTUR: Former health minister Kodela Sivaprasada Rao and TDP leader Kodela Sivaprasada Rao on Monday said that the state government has been sleeping over the outbreak of Chikun Guniya and has done nothing to plug the losses being faced by the poultry farmers due to the bird flu scare.
?As a practising doctor, I am warning the state government. If Chikun Gunya is not controlled, it may turn into a serious disease like Dengue,? he said.
The state has not taken any remedial measures to control the outbreak, he said adding that the government should set up committees headed by the collectors to launch an all-out coordinated effort to control the spread of the disease.
