Hyderabad: Taking into cognizance of The Hans India report published on 3 June titled ‘City library in a pathetic condition’, the Hyderabad Collectorate had sanctioned Rs 66.35 lakh to the city libraries.
Hyderabad Joint Collector M Prashanthi asked the authorities to take up the renovation works at the City Library in Chikkadpally on priority with an estimated cost of Rs 30 lakh. She asked the officials to construct toilets and purchase new books for the library.
Responding to a query, Prashanthi said, "The City Central Library will get a new and modernised look. We will construct two toilets at the library which will be maintained by Sulabh international. We are renovating all libraries in the city and renovation works have already begun in few libraries.”
