HC shocker to KCR: Demolition of Secretariat stayed

Telangana CM KCR’s plan to demolish Secretariat and build a vastu-complaint new Secretariat in its place received a jolt on Tuesday.

The Telangana High Court issued stay orders on demolition of Secretariat.

It directed state government not to demolish existing Secretariat buildings till it disposes off the case.

A batch of petitions has been filed in the High Court against the decision of TRS government to demolish Secretariat buildings.

The petitioners urged that some hundreds of crores of public money will go waste if Secretariat buildings are demolished.

Besides, the construction of new Secretariat will cost more than Rs 500 crore, which again is a waste of public money.

Earlier, the High Court has dismissed KCR government’s plans to demolish Errum Manzil in Panjagutta, an heritage structure, to construct new Legislative Assembly and Legislative complex.

KCR has laid foundation for construction of new Secretariat and Assembly on June 26.

However, both his plans have gone awry with HC directions.
