Koh Imam-e-Zameen, a site for mourning during Muharram, is being renovated by a trust run by NRIs
Up on a small hillock near the Ammuguda Railway Station in Secunderabad is Koh Imam-e-Zameen, a site for mourning during Muharram. The small hilltop shrine is reached by an almost vertical flight of steps numbering 147. Threatened by continuous pulverising of rocks in the surrounding area, the religious place was on the verge of collapse when a trust run by NRIs stepped in.
