Taj Mahal was not built by Shah Jahan but…, PIL filed at Delhi HC urges to ‘change history’

livemint.com:

Bar and Bench “The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has provided conflicting and contradictory information on Taj Mahal." “Under this, the ASI has mentioned that six months after the death of Mumtaz Mahal in 1631, her body was transferred to Agra to be enshrined in the crypt of the main Tomb of the Taj Mahal. This is contradictory to the information provided in the same web page for Taj Mahal where ASI has claimed that it took 17 years for the monuments complex to be completed in 1648.

This is contrary to the above stated information provided by ASI on its same web page where it states that six months after the death of A Mumtaz Mahal her body was interred in the crypt of the main tomb of Taj Mahal because if Taj Mahal had taken 17 years to complete in 1648 then how come within six months in 1631 her dead body was enshrined in the main tomb of Taj Mahal when the ASI has stated on its website that Taj Mahal was completed in 1648," it was contended. The plea is likely to come up for hearing on Friday before a bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela.
