      In neglected Burhanpur, where Mumtaz Mahal once rested

      In neglected Burhanpur, where Mumtaz Mahal once rested : http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/columns/in-neglected-burhanpur-where-mumtaz-mahal-once-rested/article17759131.ece 

      The enclosing walls
      Inside the Aahukhana building
      The sun set here long ago
      I’m apalled and disturbed
      The middle of nowhere ( now)
      The Baghicha where Mumtaz Mahal was given her funeral
      The mosque in the Baghicha
      The Baghicha complex with mosque and Hauz for ghusl
      The Baghicha building where her its is held
      Apparently some repairs are to be done
      The Tapti river from the Baghicha
      This is supposed to be the Hauz where ghusl was given
      Baghicha
      Shiv temples on the Tapti river as seen from the Baghicha
      State of disrepair
      Did Shah Jahan need support when he came here to bid his empress goodbye!
      Mosque in Baghicha
      The only surviving Darwaza of the Aahukhana
      Says Mumtaz Mahal Begum ki qabr
      A baradari that is in danger of falling down. Once resting place of Mumtaz Mahal
      A romantic attempt by me. The reality is much worse
      Baradari in aahukhana where Mumtaz was initially buried
      Can you imagine how many tears Shah Jahan would have wept here!
      Baradari
      The pillars can fall down any time – baradari
      This is the baradari where Mumtaz Mahal was buried for 6 months
