The deserted look of historical Charminar after an indefinite curfew was imposed in the old city of Hyderabad after communal violence continued for the third consecutive day in Hyderabad on Monday, 29 March 2010. The curfew was imposed hours after two fresh cases of violence erupted in areas around the historic Charminar -- Shahali Banda, Moghalpura, Aliabad, Lal Darwaza, Shamsheergunj and other localities -- besides Mecca Masjid in the old city.
