Minutes of the Meeting
➢ After the closure of the Health Accord 23 conference, all the members of AHHA met and appreciated the members involved in successfully conducting the Health Accord '23 – Conference.
➢ Dr. K.T. Reddy acted as Chairman and welcomed all the members for the AHHA
➢ Dr. K.T. Reddy spoke about the general body meeting and suggested to increase the membership in AHHA. He wanted to relinquish AHHA from active executive participation and
wanted new executive members.
➢ Later he requested Prof (Lt Col) Dayakar Thota to carry forward the proceedings of conducting
election for the office bearers of AHHA for the year 2023-24.
➢ Prof. Dayakar Thota highlighted the point that AHHA is entering its 25th year in September 2023
and this being the ‘Silver Jubilee’ year for AHHA, all the activities like enlarging the membership, conducting of conferences and student oriented one day workshops must be held regularly at a grand scale. He also pointed out that though we have entered
the 25th year of inception, we do not own any office space or a stretch of land to construct one. He stressed on the one point agenda of getting a building or land allocated from the Telangana Government at the earliest. The aim of new office bearers should
be to achieve this and he exhorted the members to elect persons who are capable and willing to pursue relentlessly this matter.
➢ He sought volunteers to take up this challenge and Dr Martha Ramesh and Prof Masood came forward to take over this responsibility and to stand for positions of President and Vice- President respectively. It was also suggested by the members to elect
Dr C. Narender Kumar as the General Secretary, Dr V. Srinivas as Joint Secretary and Mrs. Vijaya Reddy of Apollo institute of Hospital Administration as the Treasurer.
