[TASK 105: BANGLADESH]

There’s a masterlist below compiled of over 500+ Bangladeshi faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever faceclaim or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)

STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.

THINGS YOU CAN MAKE FOR THIS TASK - examples are linked!

85-years-old Muslim woman was burnt alive to death in Delhi by Extremist Rioters The Riots in India are getting worsened day by day, earlier we shared with you the tragic Incident of a mosque Imam who was brutally attacked with acid on his face. Another tragic incident was two mosques and one Sufi shrine was set ablaze, at one mosque the right-wing goons set up the hanuman flag at minaret of the mosque. Another, tragic incident is coming on the way and we are saddened by this, an 85-years-old grandmother was set ablaze alive till death inside her home as she could not make her way when right-wing extremist entered her house to kill all the family members, young women and men of the house escaped but she could not make it, rioters destroyed the house and set it on the fire, the old granny burnt alive to death. We pray to Almighty Allah may her soul rest in peace, also pray for her may Allah grant her Jannatul Firdous. It was reported by many prominent publications sites like scroll.in, the quint and etc. The grandmother was the resident of Gaamri Extension in Delhi. the capital of India, where this disastrous right occurs and about 100 lives from both communities are lost, in which the majority of the people who lost their lives are from the Muslim community. The name of the grandmother was Akbari Begum and she had three/four children, the rioters were saying "ALL The Muslims should leave India" In this tragic riots which occurred in India due to the ruling party discriminatory and unconstitutional act which passed against the citizens of India targeted on the Muslim community, the Muslims of India were peacefully protesting against this anti-Muslim law/act in a democratic manner, but to gain vote bank the right-wing played the game of dirty politics of religion, same like divide and rule of Britishers in India, this kind of politics basically played on religious basis mostly among the two majoritarian religious communities living in India e.g Hindu and Muslims. About now an Imam who was acid attacked is in serious condition and only one hospital of Delhi in an official press released said that 48 people have died so far, imagine what about other hospitals? https://www.instagram.com/p/CH0gW0GAJ6t/?igshid=f43byax6eule

The city lies close to Triveni Sangam, “three-river confluence”, original name – Prayag, “place of sacrifice or offering” – which lies at the sangam(confluence) of the Ganga, Yamuna and Sarasvati rivers, a propitious place to conduct sacrifices. It plays a central role in Hindu scriptures. Allahabad was originally called Kaushambi (now a separate district) by the Kuru rulers of Hastinapur, who developed it as their capital. Since then, the city has been a political, cultural and administrative centre of the Doab region.

In the early 17th century, Allahabad was a provincial capital in the Mughal Empire under the reign of Jahangir.

Akbarnama mentions that the Mughal emperor Akbarfounded a great city in Allahabad. `Abd al-Qadir Bada’uni and Nizamuddin Ahmad mention that Akbar laid the foundations of an imperial city there which was called Ilahabas or Ilahabad.[15][16] He was said to be impressed by its strategic location and built a fort there, later renaming it Ilahabas by 1584 which was changed to Allahabad by Shah Jahan.[vague][17]

In 1580, Akbar created the “Subah of Ilahabas” with Allahabad as its capital.[18] In mid-1600, Salim had made an abortive attempt to seize Agra’s treasury and came to Allahabad, seizing its treasury and setting himself up as a virtually independent ruler.He was, however, reconciled with Akbar and returned to Allahabad where he stayed before returning to the royal court in 1604.

In 1833 it became the seat of the Ceded and Conquered Provinces region before its capital was moved to Agra in 1835. Allahabad became the capital of the North-Western Provinces in 1858 and was the capital of India for a day.[22] The city was the capital of the United Provinces from 1902[22] to 1920[23] and remained at the forefront of national importance during the struggle for Indian independence.

Located in southern Uttar Pradesh, the city’s metropolitan area covers 70.5 km2 (27.22 sq miles).[25] Although the city and its surrounding area are governed by several municipalities, a large portion of Allahabad District is governed by the Allahabad City Council. The city is home to colleges, research institutions and 2 dozen central and state government offices. Allahabad has hosted cultural and sporting events, including Kumbh Mela and the Indira Marathon. Although the city’s economy was built on tourism, most of its income now derives from real estate and financial services. The Allahabad district is the second-most revenue providing district in Uttar Pradesh.

History Timeline Antiquity of Allahabad

The city was earlier known as Prayāga, a name still commonly used. Prayāga is first mentioned in the Agni Purana and in Manusmriti, as the place where Brahma (the Hindu creator of the universe) attended a ritual sacrifice.[28] Excavations have revealed Northern Black Polished Ware dating to 600–700 BCE.[28] The Puranas record that Yayati left Allahabad and conquered the region of Saptha Sindhu.[29] His five sons (Yadu, Druhyu, Puru, Anu and Turvashu) founded the main tribes of the Rigveda.[30] Lord Rama, the protagonist of the Ramayana, spent time at the Ashram of Sage Bharadwaj before travelling to nearby Chitrakoot.

When people first settled in what they called the Āryāvarta (or Madhyadesha), Allahabad (then Kaushambi) was an important part of their territory.[32] The Kurus, rulers of Hastinapur (near present-day Delhi), established the town of Kaushambi near Allahabad.[33] They shifted their capital to Kaushambi when Hastinapur was destroyed by floods.

The Doab region, which includes Allahabad, was controlled by a succession of empires and dynasties.[34] The area became part of the Mauryaand Gupta Empires from the east and the Kushan Empire from the west before being governed by Kannauj during the 15th century.[32] The city was the site of Maratha incursions before India was colonised.

Early medieval period

Xuanzang described Allahabad as a large city between two branches of the river. He adds that there was a large Deva temple and before its hall was a great tree, near which human bones of people who used to commit suicide by jumping from it in the belief of going to heaven. Alexander Cunninghambelieves the tree described by him was the Akshayavat tree and probably still existed at the time of Al-Biruni who called it the “tree of Allahabad”, with the practice of jumping from it to commit suicide still continuing by his time. The rest of Allahabad’s history up to the Mughal Emperor Akbar isn’t much known.

In contrast to the account of Xuanzang, the Muslim historians place the tree at the confluence of the rivers. The historian Dr. D. B. Dubey states that it appears that between this period, the sandy plain was washed away by the Ganga, to an extent that the temple and tree seen by the Chinese traveller too was washed away, with the river later changing its course to the east and the confluence shifting to the place where Akbar laid the foundations of his fort.

As the majority of the houses would have been mud-walled, a flood could easily destroy them. Cunningham’s conclusion in his reports on the Archaeological Survey also supports the assumption, “I infer that during the long period that intervened between the time of Hiuen Tsang and that of Akbar, the two rivers gradually carried away the whole of the sandy plain. Long before this time, the old city had, no doubt, been deserted, for we know that the fort of Allahabad was founded on its site.”[37] Dilip Kumar Chakrabarti however, disagrees. He states that there is no way modern Allahabad is ancient, but the city site of Jhusi opposite the confluence was the ancient settlement of Prayag.[38]

Henry Miers Elliot believed that a town existed before Allahabad was founded. He adds that after Mahmud of Ghazni captured Asní near Fatehpur, he couldn’t have crossed into Bundelkhand without visiting Allahabad had there been a city worth plundering. He further adds that its capture should have been heard when Muhammad of Ghor captured Benares. however, Ghori’s historians never noticed it.Akbarnama mentions that the Mughal emperor Akbar founded a great city in Allahabad. `Abd al-Qadir Bada’uni and Nizamuddin Ahmad mention that Akbar laid the foundations of an Imperial City there which he called Ilahabas.[15]

Mughal rule

Allahabad Fort, built by Mughal Emperor Akbar in 1575 on the banks of the Yamuna River.

Tomb of Nithar Begum (daughter of Mughal Emperor Jahangir) at Khusro Bagh.

Abul Fazal states, “For a long time his (Akbar’s) desire was to found a great city in the town of Piyag (Allahabad) where the rivers Ganges and Jamuna join… On 13th November 1583 (1st Azar 991 H.) he (Akbar) reached the wished spot and laid the foundations of the city and planned four forts.” `Abd al-Qadir Bada’uni states that while encamped at Piyag which was commonly called Illahabas, the emperor laid the foundation of a great building called Ilahabad. Nizamuddin Ahmad gives two different dates for its foundation. He states that he laid the foundation of the city at a place of the confluence of Ganges and Jumna which was a very sacred site of Hindus. He also mentions about occurrences of 1584, “this time when the news of the disasters in Gujarat was reported, His Majesty deputed Mirza Khan… He (Akbar) founded a great city at Jusi Pyak at the place where the rivers Jamuna and Ganges united with each other and planned a fort around it. He named the city Ilahabas… and spent a period of four months.”[39]

Akbar was said to be impressed by its strategic location and built a fort there, later renaming it Ilahabas by 1584 which was changed to Allahabad by Shah Jahan.[17] In 1580, Akbar reorganized his empire into 12 divisions, per Ain-i-Akbari, “to each of which he gave the name Subah and distinguished them by the appelation of the tract of country or its capital city.” He combined the provinces of Jaunpur, Kara-Manikpur and territory of Bandhogarh into the “Subah of Ilahabas”. He had been worried about the administration of the area, particularly, after Ali Quli Khan Zaman’s rebellion. Allahabad was selected as its capital.[18]

After Prince Salim’s failed attempt to seize Agra’s treasury, he came to Allahabad and seized its treasury while setting himself up as a virtually independent ruler.[19] In May 1602, he had his name read in Friday prayers and his name minted on coins in Allahabad. After reconciliation with Akbar, Salim returned to Allahabad, where he stayed before returning in 1604.[20] After capturing Jaunpur in 1624, Shah Jahan ordered the siege of Allahabad. The siege was however, lifted after Parviz and Mahabat Khan came to assist the garrison.[40] During the Mughal war of succession, the commandant of the fort who had joined Shah Shuja made an agreement with Aurangzeb’s officers and surrendered it to Khan Dauran on 12 January 1659.[41]

Nawabs of Awadh

The fort was coveted by the East India Company for the same reasons Akbar built it. British troops were first stationed at Allahabad fort in 1765 as part of the Treaty of Allahabad signed by Lord Robert Clive, Mughal emperor Shah Alam II, and Awadh’s NawabShuja-ud-Daula.[42] The combined forces of Bengal’s Nawab Mir Qasim, Shuja and Shah Alam were defeated by the English at Buxar in October 1764 and at Kora in May 1765. Alam, who was abandoned by Shuja after the defeats, surrendered to the English and was lodged at the fort, as they captured Allahabad, Benares and Chunar in his name. The territories of Allahabad and Kora were given to the emperor after the treaty was signed in 1765. He spent six years there and after the takeover of Delhiby the Marathas, left for his capital in 1771.[43]

Upon realizing the Maratha intent of territorial encroachment, however, Shah Alam ordered his general Najaf Khan to drive them out. Tukoji Rao Holkar and Visaji Krushna Biniwale in return attacked Delhi and defeated his forces in 1772. The Marathas were granted an imperial sanad for Kora and Allahabad. They turned their attention to Oudh to gain these two territories. Shuja was however, unwilling to give them up and made appeals to the English and the Marathas did not fare well at the battle of Ramghat.[44] In August and September 1773, Warren Hastings met Shuja and concluded a treaty, under which Kora and Allahabad were ceded to the Nawab for a payment of 50 lakh rupees.[45]

Saadat Ali Khan II, after being made the Nawab by John Shore, entered into a treaty with the Company and gave the fort to the British in 1798.[46] Lord Wellesley after threatening to annex the entire Awadh, concluded a treaty with Saadat on abolishing the independent Awadhi army, imposing a larger subsidiary force and annexing Rohilkhand, Gorakhpurand the Doab in 1801.

British rule

Allahabad University established in 1887 is one of the oldest modern universities in the Indian subcontinent.

Acquired in 1801, Allahabad asides from its importance as a pilgrimage centre, was a stepping stone to the agrarian track upcountry and the Grand Trunk Road. It also potentially offered sizeable revenues to the Company. Initial revenue settlementsbegan in 1803.[48] Allahabad was a participant in the 1857 Indian Mutiny,[49] when Maulvi Liaquat Aliunfurled the banner of revolt.[50] During the rebellion, Allahabad, with a number of European troops,[51] was the scene of a massacre.[14]

After the mutiny, the British established a high court, a police headquarters and a public-service commission in Allahabad,[52] making the city an administrative centre.[53] They truncated the Delhi region of the state, merging it with Punjab and moving the capital of the North-Western Provinces to Allahabad (where it remained for 20 years).[23] In January 1858, Earl Canning departed Calcutta for Allahabad.[54] That year he read Queen Victoria’s proclamation, transferring control of India from the East India Company to the British Crown (beginning the British Raj), in Minto Park.[55][56] In 1877 the provinces of Agra and Awadh were merged to form the United Provinces,[57] with Allahabad its capital until 1920.[23]

The 1888 session of the Indian National Congresswas held in the city,[58] and by the turn of the 20th century, Allahabad was a revolutionary centre.[59]Nityanand Chatterji became a household name when he hurled a bomb at a European club.[60] In Alfred Park in 1931, Chandrashekhar Azad died when surrounded by British police.[61] The Nehru familyhomes, Anand Bhavan and Swaraj Bhavan, were centres of Indian National Congress activity.[62]During the years before independence, Allahabad was home to thousands of satyagrahis led by Purushottam Das Tandon, Bishambhar Nath Pande, Narayan Dutt Tiwari and others.[24] The first seeds of the Pakistani nation were sown in Allahabad.[63] On 29 December 1930, Allama Muhammad Iqbal’s presidential address to the All-India Muslim Leagueproposed a separate Muslim state for the Muslim-majority regions of India.[64]

Post-independence

Allahabad is known as the City of Prime Ministersbecause seven out of 15 prime ministers of India since independence have connections to Allahabad (Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, Gulzarilal Nanda, Vishwanath Pratap Singh and Chandra Shekhar). All seven leaders were either born in Allahabad, were alumni of Allahabad University or were elected from an Allahabad constituency.

5 Crore People Took Bath On Mauni AmaVasya on a single day ( Ama means We and Vasya means to Live ogether so together it means Live Together )

Mauni Amavasya: Sangam turns into biggest confluence of human faith as 5 cr devotees take dip

Feb 04, 2019 09:46 PM IST

An estimated five crore devotees had their holy dip here in the Sangam Monday, the second and most auspicious day of ‘shahi snan’ on Mauni Amavasya, turning the Ganga, Yamuna and mystical Saraswati confluence into the biggest ever convergence of human faith and culture.

About 5 crore people had taken the holy dip in the Sangam by 5 pm Monday, estimated adminstration officials, suggesting it was a new record of human congregation anywhere.

In 2013, during the 12-yearly Kumbh congregation here, the turnout on Mauni Amavasya day was over 3 crore, the highest till then, they added.

The record-breaking spree of holy dips at the 40 bathing ‘ghats’ of the Sangam began soon as the clock struck the midnight intervening Sunday and Monday, heralding the auspicious hour.

With advent of the auspicious hour, lakhs of people waded into the Sangam, dazzling with over 40,000 LED lights and began taking dips, presenting a mesmerizing, wave-like picture of human heads submerging and emerging together from the water amid the chants of ‘Har Har Gangey’.

The holy bath continued beyond the day-break, when the sunlight dimmed the LED lights at Kumbh, and went on for the entire day.

Led by ascetics Hindus since time immemorial, the sacred bath on Mauni Amawasya at Kumbh, described as an “act of faith” aimed at “cleansing of one’s sins and seeking divine blessings” has been attracting pilgrims across the globe.

The busiest among all sacred bathing days in the 50-day long Kumbh Mela, Mauni Amavasya this time had greater significance as it fell on a Monday, a rather rare combination in many ways, explained some seers here.

The day began as early as 3 am for many devotees who were seen making a beeline for the Sangam on foot amid the restricted entry of vehicles to the Kumbh Nagari, the sprawling 32,000-hectare township set up on the river banks.

“Yeh Kumbh nahi aasan, bas itna samajh lijiye; thanda hai pani aur dubaki lagana hai (The Kumbh is not an easy task, the water is cold and you have to take the plunge),” said Ravish Vajpayee, an aspiring poet, who was just out after taking the dip at one of the ghats here.

Though ‘mauni’ means ‘silence’, the chants of ‘Har Har Ganga’ and ‘Ganga maiya ki Jai’ reverberated the Kumbh Mela venue and grew louder at the day break when Naga Sadhus, a martial order of ascetics, who roam naked with ash smeared on their bodies, proceeded to ghats in processions, dancing and singing with their gurus sitting atop decorated chariots.

Beside observing silence, many devotees perform ‘pind dan’ on this day for the souls of their ancestors to attain peace and to seek forgiveness and blessings from them.

Offering foods and clothes to the poor and needy is considered another important ritual of the day.

Seers of 13 akharas (seven Shaiva, three Vaishnava, two Udasina, and one Sikh) who have traditionally attended the Kumbh Mela were the first to take the holy bath.

The Kumbh administration had allocated 30 to 40 minutes each for the seers of each akhara to have their bath.

A massive security arrangement too has been put in place, with 40 police stations and as many fire stations set up to deal with any emergency situation.

Detailing the security arrangement at the venue, officials said an Integrated Command and Control Centre with 12 wireless grids has been set up at the Kumbh Mela venue for close coordination and prompt communication among security personnel.

The entire area has been put under the surveillance of 440 CCTV cameras, they added.

As the mega city briefly turned into possibly the most populous place on the face of earth Monday due to massive turnout, many entry points to the Kumbh Mela venue had to be closed.

While many complained about being stuck on the way to ghats, those who managed to enter the venue were seen boasting how they broke cordons to reach the river bank.

“Do they expect us to go back without taking a dip? One says ‘go there’, the other says ‘this side is blocked’. We were already too tired to put up with this nonsense. Of course, I had to break the cordon ultimately,” said 25-year-old Anshul Gupta from Lucknow.

The Kumbh, beside Mauni Amavasya, witnesses two ‘shahi snans’, the first of which took place on Makar Sankranti (January 15) and the third and the last being scheduled on Basant Panchmi (February 10).

About 12 crore people are expected to visit Kumbh till March 4, when the festival will come to an end.

It was constructed for the Mughal statesman Abul-Hasan ibn Mirza Ghiyas Beg, who was titled Asif Khan.Asif Khan was the brother of Empress Nur Jahan, and father of Arjumand Bano Begum, who became the consort of Shah Jahan under the name Mumtaz Mahal. In 1636, he was elevated as Khan-e-Khana and commander-in-chief and a year later became the governor of Lahore.

Asif Khan died on 12 June 1641 in a battle against the forces of rebel Raja Jagat Singh. His tomb was commissioned to be built in the Shahdara tomb complex in Lahore by Shah Jahan. It was built to the west of the tomb of Jahangir, facing it. It took four years and was completed in 1645 at a cost of 0.3 million rupees. Some historians believe that Maharajah Ranjit Singh plundered his tomb for its marble and sandstone to be used in his building projects.[1]Today the tomb and the walls as well as the main gate are dilapidated. The tomb, along with the adjacent Akbari Sarai and the Tomb of Jahangir, is on the tentative list as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.[2]

Architecture

The tomb is built entirely of brick. The main chamber is of octagonal plan, with a large central double-layered bulbous dome. It stands in the centre of a large Mughal garden, which is divided into four squares. Octagonal tombs were never used for emperors but they were commonly employed for burial of high-ranking noblemen such as Asaf Khan. The bulbous dome that crowns the tomb is an innovation of Shah Jahan's era that was used to great effect at other sites such as the Taj Mahal. [3]It once had a water reservoir, which fed into fountains and pathways. The floor of the platform on which the tomb stands was created in Sang-e Abri, while the outer walls were covered with red sandstone.

Each side has a deeply recessed iwan, or alcove, with a door and arched window looking into the tomb. The exterior originally was adorned with marble stone inlay work and veneered with stucco tracery, and blue kashi tiles typical of Lahore. The floors were decorated with marble, inlaid with precious stones.[4]The interior was renowned for its lavish use of white marble and precious stone inlay, which has since disappeared. The inner dome ceiling is decorated in a high plaster relief of interlacing patterns, but much of it has fallen off. The tomb contains the marble cenotaph, carved with inscriptions from the Qur'an, similar to that in Emperor Jahangir's adjacent tomb.

Historian Harold Hargreaves says about the tomb, "Despite its simplicity, there is a sense of restful quietude at this site (Asif Khan's Tomb) which renders it one of the most fascinating monuments in the neighborhood of Lahore."[citation needed]

An epitome of love, it made use of the offerings of twenty-two,000 employees and 1,000 elephants.

The monument was constructed totally out of white marble, which was brought in from all over India and Significant Asia. After an expenditure of approximately 32 million rupees, Taj Mahal become finally finished inside the 12 months 1653.

It became quickly after the of completion of Taj Mahal that Shah Jahan turned into deposed via his very own son Aurangzeb and was put beneath house arrest at close by Agra Fortress.

Regardless of triumphing controversies, beyond and present threats from Indo-Pak warfare and environmental pollution, this epitome of love non-stop to polish and appeal to human beings from everywhere in the global.

Agra Fort:

Agra Citadel is placed at the right financial institution of the river Yamuna within the city of Agra in Uttar Pradesh.

It become built by way of the 1/3 Mughal emperor Akbar at the remains of an historical website online called Badalgarh. Sikandar Lodi (1487-1517) changed into the primary Sultan of Delhi to shift his capital from Delhi to Agra. After Sikandar Lodi who died in 1517, his son Ibrahim Lodi held the Fort for 9 years until he became defeated and killed inside the battle of Panipat in 1526. Several palaces, wells and a mosque were built in the Citadel during the Lodi duration.

Agra Fort

while Babur despatched his son Humayun to Agra, he captured the Fortress and seized a big treasure, which protected the sector well-known ‘Koh-i-noor’ diamond as properly. Babur constructed a baoli (step-wall) here. Humayun changed into coronated right here in 1530. Nazam, a water-provider (saqqa), who had saved Humayun from drowning, turned into crowned right here as an emperor for half-a-day. After Humayun’s defeat at Bilgram in 1540, Sher Shah of the Sur dynasty occupied Agra Fort and garrisoned it.

Akbar arrived in Agra in 1558. He ordered to renovate the Citadel with Crimson sandstone. Some 4000 developers daily labored on it and it turned into completed in 8 years (1565-1573).

The Fortress, semi-round on plan, is surrounded by a 21.four m excessive fortification wall. Double ramparts had been provided right here with huge huge circular bastions at normal periods. There are four gates on its 4 aspects, one of the gates become known as “khizri-gate” (the water gate) which opens to the river the front, in which ghats (quays) have been provided .The Castle has survived through the onslaught of time, nature and men. The Citadel spreads over an area of About ninety four acres of land. At gift, there exist greater than dozens of monuments inside the Castle.

Abul Fazl, a courtroom historian of Akbar, data that 5000 homes were built here fantastically in Bengali and Gujarati style. most of these homes have now disappeared. Shah Jahan himself demolished some of these so as to make room for his white marble palaces. Later, the British destroyed most of the homes for raising barracks. Hardly ever 30 Mughal buildings have survived at the southeastern facet. of these, the Delhi-Gate, Akbari-Gate and ‘Bengali-Mahal’, are consultant of buildings raised in the course of the reign of Akbar.

Jahangir generally resided at Lahore and in Kashmir, although he visited Agra often and lived within the Fort. Shah Jahan, a Super builder, raised white marble palaces here. He also constructed three white marble mosques in it: Moti-Masjid, Nagina-Masjid and Mina-Masjid. Aurangzeb imprisoned Shah Jahan, his own father, inside the Fort for 8 years till he died in 1666 and changed into buried in the Taj Mahal. The barbicans around the two gates and on the riverside were built by way of Aurangzeb to strengthen its defences.

Although Shah Jahan had formally transferred his capital to Delhi, in 1638, he endured to stay right here. but after his demise, Agra misplaced its grandeur. Aurangzeb remained busy in the regional conflicts and wars. But, over and over, he lived right here and held the durbar. Shivaji got here to Agra in 1666 and met Aurangzeb in the Diwan-i-Khas. Aurangzeb died in 1707 and 18th century records of Agra Fortress is a saga of sieges and plunder at some point of which it turned into held with the aid of the Jats and the Marathas and sooner or later the British captured it from the latter in 1803.

Fatehpur Sikri:

Sikri an extension of the higher Vindhyan stages is situated on the financial institution of a massive herbal lake, which has now commonly dried up. It is a pre-historic site and, with ample water, forest and raw cloth, it turned into best for primitive guy’s habitation. Rock shelters with artwork exist at the outer edge of the lake. Stone age gear had been determined in this region. Ochre Colored Pottery (c. 2nd millennium B.C.) and Painted Grey Ware (c.1200-800 B.C.) have additionally been determined from right here.

Sikri has been noted inside the Mahabharata as ‘Saik’. Lexicons define ‘Saik’ as a place surrounded via water. An inscription located at the stone sculpture of Jaina Saraswati (dated 1067 Vikram Samvat = 1010 A.D.) mentions this location as ‘Sekrikya’, which appears to be a comparable by-product. All this shows that Sikri became constantly inhabited for the reason that prehistoric length.

Fatehpur Sikri

Babur visited the region on the eve of the Khanwah warfare in A.D. 1527 and noted it as ‘Sikri’ in his Memoirs. He founded right here a garden and a Jal-Mahal surrounded through the lake-water, and a baoli (step-properly) to commemorate his victory within the Khanwah conflict.

Akbar (1556-1605), grandson of Babur, shifted his house and court from Agra to Sikri, for a length of thirteen years, from 1572 to 1585 to honour the Sufi Saint Sheikh Salim Chishti, who resided here (in a cavern at the ridge). Akbar respected him very much because the Saint had blessed him with a son who become named Salim in 1569. He raised lofty buildings for his use, and homes for the general public. For this reason grew, a Amazing metropolis with captivating palaces and establishments. Akbar gave it the name of Fathabad and which in later days got here to be known as “Fathpur Sikri”.

Here almost, all Mughal institutions consisting of the ‘Ibadat-Khanah’, ‘Din-i-Ilahi’, ‘Tarikh-i-Ilahi’ , Jharokha-Darshan, the doctrine of Sulh-i-Kul and policy of liberal patronage to indigenous arts and literatures, had been founded. It became additionally here that workshops of numerous handicrafts were installed.

Sikri was the primary planned metropolis of the Mughals. The sloping levels of the city had been related into terraces which were utilised for numerous complexes together with Jami masjid, Buland-Darwazah and tomb of Sheikh Salim Chishti; Khass Mahal, Shahi-Bazar, Mina-Bazar, the Panch-Mahal, Khwabgah, Diwan-i-Khass, Anup-Talao, Chaupar and Diwan-i-Am. The efficient device of drainage and water-deliver followed here suggest a really shrewd metropolis-planning through the Mughal emperor.

Some of these palaces had been constructed of Purple sandstone in the trabeate beam-and-publish order, and composed of pillars, decorative arches, brackets-and-chhajjas, jharokhas, chhatris, chhaparkhats, chaukhandis and so on. Domes had been used sparingly. Every so often corbelled pendentives were employed within the transition phase. The structure of Fatehpur Sikri has a exact all-India man or woman. It is prolific and flexible Indo-Muslim composite style, which is a fussion of the composite cultures of indigenous and overseas origins.

Itmad-Ud-Daulah:

My wager is that for plenty readers that is the first time you’ve ever heard of this tomb, additionally referred to locally as the Child Taj. The tomb is the precursor to the Taj Mahal as it turned into constructed by Nur Jahan for her father, Mirza Ghiyas Beg (additionally referred to as “the pillar of the state” or Itimad-ud-Daulah) in the years 1622-1628, 5 years earlier than construction of the Taj Mahal started out.

Itmad-Ud-Daulah

In Agra, all records appears to come back again to the Taj Mahal, because the female who the famous mausoleum turned into constructed for (Mumtaz Mahal) was also Mirza’s granddaughter. between these historical monuments, and the famous Agra Citadel where the rulers and their families lived nearby, the city’s history that is on show the most comes right down to the events that took place throughout this one own family’s reign within the 1600s. Although small in length while compared to the Taj Mahal, a go to to the Child Taj is like taking a quick step again in time in Agra’s history, one high-quality accomplished after a go to to the long-lasting structure.

If travelling the Toddler Taj at the end of your live in Agra, it is easy to see where the designs of the Taj Mahal came from. The use of white marble and intricate inlays are further discovered on this mausoleum, but taken to the next degree on the facade of the Taj Mahal. We love to assume that there has been possibly A few bitterness inside the own family, and the husband of Mumtaz desired to build some thing so grand that it overshadowed the otherwise lovely and iconic Child Taj of its day (For this reason pushing her grandfather to the returned pages of the history books).

However in which the Taj Mahal gets its majesty from the outdoors perspectives that we all realize too nicely, what stays nowadays lacks plenty on the inner. In step with Islamic standards, the inner of the actual burial chamber at the Taj Mahal changed into stored as an alternative fundamental and without ornate decorations. Despite the fact that the cenotaph, or faux tombs above the floor, are handiest particularly decorated and on display for site visitors to pay respects, they light in contrast to the decorations discovered in the Infant Taj only some kilometers away in Agra.
