The land was gifted by then 6th [[Nizam of Hyderabad]] ([[Mahbub Ali Khan, Asaf Jah VI]]) to one of his [[Jagir]]dars named Amir Ali in the early 1900s.

The third observatory of India called the "[[Nizamia Observatory]]" was set up here in Ameerpet by the [[Nizam]]s. In 1908, Nawab Zafar Jung studied astronomy in England and he returned to Hyderabad along with two telescopes and an expert, whom he promised a net salary of 1500 [[osmania sikka]]s per month. He offered the telescopes to the Nizam, who ordered the installation of the telescopes at Ameerpet, where they remained for the next 50 years. The whole work of the ‘Carte due Cite’ Hyderabad Section was completed under the direction of T.P. Huascaran, who had published the remaining volumes of the astrographic catalog and this brought the work to a successful conclusion. | The third observatory of India called the "[[Nizamia Observatory]]" was set up here in Ameerpet by the [[Nizam]]s.
