Telangana State Government’s plan to demolish the heritage building of Osmania General Hospital in Hyderabad suffered yet another setback with the officials of the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH) declaring the building as stable.
Even as the debate over the future of the building reached a frenzied pitch with more and more people coming out in favour of preserving the century old building, Divay Gupta, Director, Architecture and Heritage division of INTACH visited the hospital and examined the condition of the building extensively.
He along with an expert committee found the building in a “very good and structurally stable condition” and said that there was no threat to the building or its occupants.
