The Udupi district administration, which had shifted all medical services from the Kundapur Taluk Hospital to Udupi, reverted the decision on Thursday following objections from MLC and former Legislative Council chairperson K. Pratapchandra Shetty.

Mr. Shetty in a letter to Deputy Commissioner G. Jagadeesha on Wednesday opposed the shifting of outpatient and inpatient services from the taluk hospital to the district hospital in Udupi and converting the taluk hospital into a COVID-19 hospital.
