The impasse over electrical work on Charminar continued on Tuesday as the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Corporator Sohail Qadri demanded the shifting of generator from its planned position to the south east of the monument.
The Archaeological Survey of India, which is the custodian of the monument, is in the process of relocating electrical fixtures from inside the building to outside. The ASI is also replacing the earthing of the minarets as well as the lighting fixtures around the monument.
The local residents feared damage to the foundation of the structure due to the deep (4-ft) holes dug at different places around the monument.
