Nagarjuna approaches court

Nagarjuna moved High Court to stop the demolition of N-Convention in Hyderabad.

According to Nagarjuna's team, the Telangana High Court has ordered a stay on the demolition of N-Convention. A statement released by his team reads, “High Court ordered a stay on demolition of structures owned by Nagarjuna, N-Convention. The actor approached the court for the stay order and was granted it. Justice T Vinod Kumar conducted the inquiry. High Court has issued an interim order to stop demolitions.”

After news of the demolition made rounds, the actor responded to it. “Pained by the unlawful manner of demolition carried out in respect of N Convention, contrary to existing stay orders and Court cases,” he wrote on X, sharing that he thought ‘fit’ to issue a statement to protect his ‘reputation’ and make it clear that he hasn’t violated laws.

N-Convention is managed by N3 Enterprises and is jointly owned by Nagarjuna and Nalla Preetham. According to The Hindu, HYDRA razed most of the structure by 11 a.m. on Saturday. The authorities cited the structure's location within the Full Tank Level of the Tummidikunta lake as the reason.

Due to that there has been frequent flooding in 100-feet road, Ayyappa Colony and other areas, according to authorities. The N-Convention centre had a main hall of 27,000 sq ft that could accommodate 3000 people and a 26,000 sq ft open-air venue called Banyan.
