The hope

(i) The efforts of 'Society to Save Rocks' led to the addition of nine rock formations in Regulation No. 13 of Hyderabad Development Authority (HUDA) for the protection of Heritage Buildings and Precincts by the Government of Andhra Pradesh.

(i.i) Challenge to the efforts of 'Society to Save Rocks' comes in the form of sold out heritage sites. One of such sites is Durgam Cheruvu, where the government’s attempt at conservation and apathy towards rocks, are both visible. A few years ago the inaccessible lake between the rock cliffs was turned into a tourist spot and now the condition is such that the entire stretch of the hills on one bank of this protected area have been destroyed in the past decade to accommodate the fast growing Hi-tech city.

(ii) Individuals have made efforts to preserve the heritage by integrating rocks into the structures of their homes. The rock forms the interior of their homes. Some builders and companies too have taken initiative to include rocks in their building complexes. Due to endless efforts of organizations like STSR, the rocks of Hyderabad have found a voice.
