  The strong cosmic censorship conjecture, whose validation asserts the
deterministic nature of general relativity, has been studied for charged BTZ
black holes in three dimensional general relativity, as well as for Nth order
pure Lovelock gravity in d=2N+1 spacetime dimensions. Through both analytical
and numerical routes, we have computed the ratio of the imaginary part of the
quasi-normal mode frequencies with the surface gravity at the Cauchy horizon.
The lowest of which corresponds to the key parameter associated with violation
of strong cosmic censorship conjecture. Our results demonstrate that this
parameter is always less than the critical value $(1/2)$, thereby respecting
the strong cosmic censorship conjecture. This is in complete contrast to the
four or, higher dimensional black holes, as well as for rotating BTZ black
hole, where the violation of strong cosmic censorship conjecture exists.
Implications and possible connection with the stability of the photon orbits
have been discussed.
