Bandi threatens to demolish \"Nizam culture\" domes of new TS Secretariat
Deccan ChronicleHyderabad: Two days after TPCC president A. Revanth Reddy sparked controversy by insinuating that Maoists should blow up the Pragathi Bhavan because the general public lacked access to the CM’s official residence, BJP state president Bandi Sanjay Kumar threatened on Friday to tear down the domes built on the newly constructed Secretariat by the BRS government if his party was voted to power because they represented the "Nizam's culture”. Speaking at a street corner gathering in the Kukatpally Assembly constituency limits as part of the ‘Janam Gosa-BJP Bharosa’ programme, Sanjay said that the BJP, if voted to power, would decimate all structures that symbolised slavery and atrocities committed under the Nizam regime. The BJP state president accused the CM of constructing the Secretariat complex solely to please his political ally Asaduddin Owaisi, AIMIM president. In response to minister K.T.Rama Rao’s statement in the Assembly that the government was proposing to enact legislation to relocate religious structures hindering road projects, Sanjay challenged the BRS government to first demolish the mosques that were built in the middle of the roads in the Old City.
