Dating back to the 17th century, the stepwell remained into use well into the 20th century, acting as one of the sources of water for the Gandhi Hospital. The stepwell fell into disuse in the 1980s after a few suicides at the well.[1]
Restorationedit
The well was restored in 2022 by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and The Rainwater Project. More than 2000 tons of debris was removed during the restoration process.[2] The restored stepwell was inaugurated by K. T. Rama Rao on 5 December, 2022.[3]
