The band comprising of the trio of Aditya Vardhan Reddy (Lead Vocalist And Guitarist), Roshan (Percussionist) and Yeshwanth (Keyboardist) entertained the guests with their numbers.Their medleys were peppy enough for the doctors and the medical experts to unwind from their stress for a while and enjoy the music and singing.

A NOTE FROM THE MINISTER
After the refreshing and rejuvenating break, it was back to the events night. The awards ceremony continued and this time the special guest was none other than Sri T. Harish Rao, Minister of State for Health, Finance, Medical & Family Welfare. Despite his hectic schedule, the Minister was kind enough to grace the event during the late hours. Sharing his thoughts, the Minister said "The doctors in Hyderabad did a fantastic job during the pandemic with minimal loss. I appreciate your role in contributing to the growth of science and medicine in Telangana state.
For the record, a recent survey revealed that the highest expenditure for development of health was done by the state of Telangana. Our honorable CM recognized the need, challenges and has decided to strengthen the health system further. Hyderabad is a medical hub with people from across the globe visiting the city for treatment. And, it is a matter of great pride for us. Today, it is the name of the doctors than hospitals which is drawing a lot of people to Hyderabad for healthcare.
We politicians often think that we have no personal life but when we look at the life of a doctor who goes even at 1am to save a life, we realize our effort is nothing. The journey of a doctor is that of a student because there is constant reading, upgrading required. Despite the Covid scare, doctors are braving all the challenges and saving lives. They are doing a fabulous job in this regard and I find it a privilege today to be here and honor all these individuals. I appreciate all the doctors who are going to receive the awards today. I also request Times of India to conduct more of such events year on year."

AN END WITH THE LEGENDS
Post completion of his speech, Sri T. Harish Rao gave away the awards to various medical experts, specialists and individuals. The icing on the cake was when the medical legends of the Telugu states such as Dr D Nageshwar Reddy, Dr A. V. Gurava Reddy, Dr Manjula Anagani, Dr Srikant Morlawar and others were called upon the stage and stood together for the cameras along with the Minister. The very visual gave immense confidence to the people present that their lives are in the safest and best hands.
