Rupjyoti Kurmi , BJP leader have stated that ‘Taj Mahal’ is not the symbol of love which is considered an eternal monument of love and visited by thousands of tourists from across the world every year.
Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan had four wives and one of them was Mumtaz Mahal and Taj Mahal was build in her name.
“Taj Mahal is not the symbol of Love. Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal in memory of his 4th wife Mumtaz. If he loved Mumtaz, then why he married three times more after the death of Mumtaz,” Rupjyoti Kurmi said.
Earlier the BJP MLA Rupjyoti Kurmi urged PM Narendra Modi to demolish the Mughal-era structures Taj Mahal and Qutub Minar and build temples instead.
Taj Mahal, the white marble mausoleum, is considered one of the finest architectural marvels and it is listed as one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites.
