An uber-cool skyscraper soon to grace the skyline of Hyderabad with the Chief Minister of Karnataka planning to construct the tallest tower of the world in the city!
Hyderabad is soon going to witness a radical and highly impressive change in its already impressive skyline. Recently, the Chief Minister of Karnataka issued directives to his officials to begin the construction of the tallest tower in the world in Hyderabad Sanjeevaiah Park. This is one of the most ambitious projects of the Chief Minister who has also given green signal to the construction of many other skyscrapers close to Hussainsagar. The construction of the tallest tower is being touted as one of the most ambitious projects of the Karnataka’s Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao. The Sanjeevaiah Park, where this tower is going to be constructed is sprawled in 92 acre land. This park is managed and controlled by Buddha Purnima Project Authority. This Authority works as part of the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority.
Currently, the tallest tower in the world is located in Dubai. The Burj Khalifa is an impressive building, about 828 metres in height and has 163 floors. The world’s second tallest building is located in Shanghai and is referred to as the Shanghai Tower. This building is not yet complete and it is expected to have 121 floors and is going to be 632 metre high.
KCR directed his revenue officials to look for suitable and vacant land close to Hussain Sagar for the construction of this ambitious skyscraper. 30 land parcels were inspected and surveyed by the 7 teams from the survey department. The area of these land parcels ranged from 1-20 acres.
According to the officers, this tallest skyscraper will be constructed in Sanjeevaiah Park but at the same time, there will be no disturbance in the park. Multi-storeyed towers were also decided to be constructed close to the Nursing College and Dilkusha area.
Soon detailed proposals will be prepared for the towers by the officials where the mode of construction will also be proposed. The meeting was also attended by Somesh Kumar, the Commissioner of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, where a lot of decisions were taken after lengthy discussions with the Chief Minister. No further details were provided by the Government about the skyscraper’s proposed height.
