Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy has directed officials to plan a new zoo park on the outskirts of Hyderabad.
At the review meeting on August 30 at the state secretariat, he discussed smart, proactive, efficient, and effective delivery (SPEED) projects, including plans for a zoo park aside from the well-known existing one
spread at 380 acres within the city.
The Nehru Zoo Park, located near Mir Alam Tank in Bahadurpura, was inaugurated on October 6, 1963, after the relocation of the erstwhile zoo enclosures from the Public Gardens. The construction of the Nehru Zoo Park in Hyderabad took four years after its construction began on October 26, 1959.
