HYDERABAD: Friday was a day full of nostalgia for the police personnel attached to the famous Ramgopalpet Police Station located on the busy Mahatma Gandhi (MG) Road in Secunderabad. The cops here are in the process of vacating the building, a heritage monument from the British era.
The ongoing torrential rains, which have been pounding the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad for the past one week, have taken a on this building, which has been serving as a landmark for the local people in Secunderabad, ever since 1900.
As the ancient building, which houses the police station, is on the verge of collapse, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) authorities have begun the process of getting the premises of this heritage structure vacated.
Animal Husbandry minister Talasani Srinivas Yadav visited the police station on Friday afternoon and inspected the building. After interacting with the police personnel there, he asked them to immediately vacate the building. During the interaction with the minister, the cops recalled their bitter and sweet memories attached with the old building.
