Hyderabad’s Gandhi Sarovar Project threatens to raze apartments

Telangana CM Revanth Reddy’s ambitious Gandhi Sarovar Project has snowballed into a controversy, with questions being raised over the need for constructing a memorial over the razed homes. Envisaged as part of the Musi Riverfront Development initiative, the project threatens to demolish apartments, displace families and redraw the map of settlements that fall within 50 metres of the riverbank.
