Mayor directs Greater Hyderabad civic body to build ramp to Moula Ali hill

HYDERABAD: Mayor MohdMajidHussain has directed Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) officials to provide a ramp uptoMoula Ali hill. He asked the engineering wing to prepare estimates in the next 10 days for the work.

The mayor along with MIM MLA Syed Ahmed Pasha Quadri, MLCSyedAltafHyderRazvi and other officials visited Moula Ali Kaman, the over 400-year-old historic shrine on top of the hill.

After the inspection, Charminar MLA Ahmed Pasha Quadri said that several representations were given to provide a ramp to the hill as the pilgrims, especially aged ones, have been facing problems in reaching the spot.

The mayor said estimates would be prepared and placed before the standing committee and works will be taken up in two phases. In the first phase, the ramp works from Khushal Khan Kaman to Aashurkhana, Azrath Abbas NeemBada would be taken up, while the remaining work would be taken up in the second phase as it requires technical assistance due to the steep rocks.
