Visakhapatnam Vedanta's Vizag General Cargo Berth (VGCB) has provided medical support to the city's King George Hospital.

As part of its CSR initiative, the company donated a cardioline holter monitor to the Cardiology Department of the premier government hospital. The device was handed over to KGH Superintendent Dr. P. Mythili by VGCB CEO C. Sateesh Kumar on Friday. Also present at the event were Dr. Malladi Srinivasa Rao, Head of Cardiology Department, KGH and Dr. Shirin Rahman, a social activist.

Dr. Srinivas said that the medical device will benefit patients as well as students.

A holter monitor is a portable device that is used for assessing the cardiac monitoring -electrical activity of the cardiovascular system. The device consists of a recorder that can record the electrocardiography for seven days.

Health is one of the major thrust areas of Vedanta's CSR initiatives, according to a release. The larger objective of this initiative is to create quality healthcare facilities for the communities around and to support upgradation of hospital infrastructure for PG education.

Sauvick Mazumdar, CEO, Vedanta-Iron & Steel Sector said "at Vedanta, our constant endeavour is to support holistic development of communities around through our structured CSR programmes, and we believe quality healthcare facility is an extremely important aspect of community development. This initiative is yet another step in our strive to contribute towards the upgradation of medical infrastructure for the larger benefits of the people of Vizag & peripheral areas."
