BismillahKhan2001 said: We (Neena Jha & Shivnath Jha: visit Google search) have launched a movement "Andolan Ek Pustak Se" (Monograph on Shehnai Maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan to protect such families. On July 4, 2007, with the help of Indian railway Minister Lalu Prasad, we have rehabilitated Vinayak Rao Tope, the heirs of Tatya Tope, the frontline leader of 1857 Uprising and contemporary of Bahadur Shah Zafar by prividing his daughters Pragati and Tripti employment in Indian Railway as well as Rs. 5 lakh financial support. Now we have identified Sultana Begam. We are going to Kolkata to bring the family to New Delhi for their complete rehabilitation so that she alongwith her family could lead a dignified life in the society.

narcissist_mum said: I disagree with the second paragraph of KBR's comment here. Just because we have other great structures in our country, it doesn't belittle what the Taj is. I do agree that the other structures too should be given a place of pride, but belittling the Taj is a very regressive approach. For that matter, when you mention the Great Wall of China, whats so glorious about that? Its just a wall...isn't it? On topic...I don't see any reason why we should be bothered about Sultana Begum any more than we should bother about the millions of BPL families in India. The descendants of Bahadur Shah Zafar have no one but themselves to blame for their state of penury today. And to all those who have commented here just for the heck of doing so, please don't waste cyberspace thus. Commenting with a token "ok" is actually insulting to the person who put in so much effort into penning her thoughts. Its so very condescending. July 11, '07 |

King-Bulls-Ring said: What you want us to do with the great-grand-daughter of the builder of Taj Mahal? Honor her as what? successor of the Builder of the monument? a tomb? as what? Whats so glorius about Taj, except the Marble architecture? WHy only this structure? In the first place, India is in such a pathetic position, it has to boast a Moghul Tomb built just 350 years ago, while we have equal or more antique and more ancient enough as those like great wall of china and colloseium. By celebrating this, I don't think India is doing justice to itself... July 10, '07 |
