City college hyderabad

Hyderabad: The imposing Government City College on the banks of Musi reached another milestone with the building completing 100 years of construction. The historic structure of the college has been the learning portal for students of high school, intermediate and undergraduates. The present three-storied edifice, which has been identified as a Grade-II heritage structure, was constructed on 16 acres of land by Chief Engineer Nawab Khan Bahadur Mirza Akbar Baig based on the Indo-Saracenic architectural style. The structure, which stands next to the Musi River is made of lime, mortar and stone. With its proximity to the Musi, the building’s ground floor has been constructed with stone to ensure that it does not get affected in case of floods. The building has 64 rooms including a gallery, seminar rooms and a big library. The institution still has century-old furniture, including some benches in mint condition. However, the main structure is crying for attention as it requires urgent repairs and restoration works. At several places, the iron beams are visible while there is also leakage of water from the rooftop and pipelines. The educational institution dates back to 1865 when the then ruler, Nizam Mahbub Ali Khan Asaf Jah VI of Hyderabad established the first City School and named it Madarsa Dar-ul-Uloom. Nizam VII Osman Ali Khan converted the Madarsa into the City High School and moved it into the present building in 1921. In the same year, the intermediate sections of Osm...

Premium Hyderabad’s iconic City College marks centenary as occasion to preserve its heritage, prepare for next 100 years Originally established in 1865 by the sixth Nizam Mahbub Ali Khan Bahadur, the school moved to its present building designed by British architect Vincent Jerome Esch in 1921. Today, however, it is a shadow of its former self Hyderabad’s City College is a hundred years old now. The iconic Nizam-era monument dates back to an era when several imposing structures in Indo-Saracenic style of architecture popped up along the banks of the river Musi in the Old City. The college, overlooking the new city that expanded northwards, is a testament to the then Nizam administration’s effort to provide quality and affordable education. Today, however, it is a shadow of its former self and cries for attention. From an initial student strength of 30 in 1921, the same building today houses over 4,500 students in undergraduate and postgraduate courses and another 2,000 students in intermediate courses conducted in two shifts. With limited resources, it is barely able to meet the aspirations of students. The college, overlooking the new city that expanded northwards, is a testament to the then Nizam administration’s effort to provide quality and affordable education. (Express) As one of the students puts it, “It is a ramshackle palace. Hardly any repair or maintenance is taken up. Water seeps through the ceilings and walls when it rains. It is hard to imagine what this coll...
