Although the Supreme Court has asked all the state governments not to permit construction of religious structures and places of worship at public land or government premises, a religious structure has been illegally constructed in the premises of Saifabad palace build by Asif Jah VI Nawab Mir Mahboob Ali Khan at Andhra Pradesh secretariat where many important departments run including the chambers of chief minister, state ministers and high officials. According to reliable sources fire puja was also done there some days ago.
Following the collapse of old hotel at Secunderabad, workers at G block are living under constant fear. Secretariat workers are said to have submitted a memorandum to chief secretary P K Mohanty requesting him to raze G Block Saifabad Mahal constructed in 1888. They say that the building is in very precarious condition and can collapse any time. Government authorities should also think about demolishing the illegal platform constructed in the premises while demolishing the dilapidated palace.
