By contrasting children with pencils that had ideals like leading from within to write their futures, he provided an example of this. Lastly, he stressed the importance of teachers as handlers in teaching to never shy away from starting over again in life a low phase.

About the walk-in wardrobe

The Nizam never wore the same outfit again, and after use, his clothing was donated. As a result, there is no reliable documentation of his outfit. The remaining portions of his clothing are utilized to emphasize the varied costumes worn by men, women, and children in hyderabad in the absence of any of his own possessions. There are at present more than ten buildings in the Purani Haveli. The main building which accommodates the Nizam’s museum is flanked by two long wings running parallel to each other.The wardrobe had a hand-operated lift to reach sections and it still exists. It has over 100 almirahs
