HYDERABAD: One of the four 20th century clocks that are on all four sides of Charminar was found broken on Monday evening. That is why conservation is an ongoing process," said Taher, former director of ASI. The dial of the clock will be repaired by Wahid Watch Company, which has been taking care of the clocks at Charminar for the last 62 years after being handed over the responsibility by ASI in 1962. Charminar was constructed in 1591 by Sultan Muhammed Quli Qutb Shah, the fifth Sultan of the Qutb Shahi dynasty.
