At a time when there are ongoing protests over proposed demolition of Osmania General Hospital now drowned in the din are other structure which are being razed quietly. Now the latest one to face the axe is the Goshamahal traffic police station.
The police station was among those surviving handful and identifiable structures of the Asaf Jahi period. It was reportedly built during reign of the seventh Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan and it stood across the road close to Mozzam Jahi Market, another heritage building, representing the rich cultural significance of this area.
Heritage experts have expressed outrage saying that the police stations of Nizam era were built in a fashion such that they are instantly recognisable to locals and foreigners alike. Many say that no CM of United AP had been so negligent towards demolishing old structures like the current Telangana government.
