Reports suggest that a few more changes could be made to make the secretariat Vastu compliant.
Notable, former chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who was an ardent believer in the Vasthu Shastra, had 10 blocks of the old secretariat complex demolished to build a swanky new secretariat due to ‘Vasthu dosha‘ of the complex. He also got the former chief minister’s residence demolished to build a new residence which he had named ‘Pragathi Bhavan’.
