The cemetery is divided into two sections, namely Roman Catholic and Protestant, to accommodate people of the two different Christian denominations. More recently the older graves are being replaced by new ones due to lack of space for the newly dead, as even the government had refused to donate new land despite repeated requests.{{cite web|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-09-23/hyderabad/28233573_1_graves-cemetery-managers-bodies |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121104084357/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-09-23/hyderabad/28233573_1_graves-cemetery-managers-bodies |url-status=dead |archive-date=2012-11-04 |title=India News, Latest Sports, Bollywood, World, Business & Politics News |date= |website=The Times of India |access-date=2016-06-25}} The cemetery pays its electricity bills in the name of Prophet Isaiah.{{cite web|url=http://www.greatandhra.com/viewnews.php?id=22976&cat=10&scat=25|title=Behind The Scene: In The Name Of God!|website=Greatandhra.com|access-date=25 June 2016}}
