The Telangana government has decided to scrap the 24-year-old Charminar Pedestrianisation Project that was envisioned to give a facelift to the surroundings of Hyderabad’s iconic monument Charminar by the then unified Andhra Pradesh government, after it repeatedly failed to meet the deadlines. Instead, the government has decided to introduce its new version of the project ‘Charminar Historical Precinct Revitalisation Plan,’ according to a statement by the Municipal Administration and Urban Development (MA&UD) department of the government Friday.
