The 400-year-old glazed tile wonder of Baadshahi Ashoorkhana, built during the reign of Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah in Hyderabad, will finally get an entrance befitting its heritage stature. This follows an undertaking by the Government of India through its Deputy Solicitor General of India to construct a boundary wall around the heritage site, which was completed in 1611 CE.
“The revised estimate has been prepared, and the boundary wall shall be completed and compliance report in this regard shall be submitted latest by the last week of June, 2024,” read a submission by the Deputy Solicitor General of India following an interlocutory application for protection of the historical monument.
Currently, tourists and visitors have to cross concertina wire, hop across rubble and squeeze through a small window of the doorway to get into the complex.
