Hyderabad...comming of age of a city

Now I am in the city of Nizams ....Hyderabad.Through the ages the city has gone through
several changes.In the 16th century quli qutub shah who was ruler of Golcunda founded the city
in the name of his wife hyder mahal.Then during the period of Aurangzeb the city was concurred by the mughals.After the weakening of mughals the local ruler nizam become powerful.Later on in british period also nizam,s rule continued.After the independence of india nizam wanted it to be either independent dominion or to be with pakistan.but local uprising and pressure of being landlocked by indian state on all sides eventually made hyderabad a part of India.India accused nizam of giving pak ambassador of London a huge amount of money. The case is still subjudice in England.In last 10 years hyderabad gradually rechristened as cyberabad.With all frontline it companies comming for bussiness and with the surge of young it professionals from all parts of the country transformed the the city into a truly cosmopolitan one.
