The menace of monkeys continues to persist in several areas of the city, while the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), for all practical purposes, has abdicated its responsibility to control them.
The primates roam around freely on roads, within residential premises, and occasionally even attack people, terrifying the city residents.
The problem is especially high in areas such as Padmarao Nagar, New Bhoiguda, Telecom Nagar Colony, Gachibowli, and Musheerabad, besides peripheral regions of the city, closer to the forested areas.
