The Aga Khan Trust for Culture is set to withdraw from the Qutb Shahi Tombs restoration and conservation project in Hyderabad it handled for the past decade and where the present MoU expires in January 2022. “For 10 years now, over 42 cases/ IA's have been filed by the same advocate representing the same seven petitioners residents of within Golconda Fort - all people with no expertise. The allegations made are baseless - including destruction of the very monuments we have set out to conserve. Under such circumstances it is not possible to continue to undertake these challenging conservation efforts,” said Ratish Nanda, CEO, Aga Khan Trust for Culture. The last straw was the stay by the Telangana High Court not to vacate the stay on interpretation centre being developed within Deccan Park in lieu of demolished banquet hall and swimming pool.More Related News
