🏛️ Architectural Marvels of the Mughal Empire 🏛️

The Mughal Empire, which flourished from the 16th to the 18th century, left an indelible mark on the architectural landscape of India. Known for their grandeur and intricate designs, Mughal structures are a testament to the empire’s artistic and cultural zenith.

🌟 Taj Mahal: Perhaps the most iconic of all, the Taj Mahal in Agra is a symbol of eternal love and architectural brilliance. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal, this white marble mausoleum is renowned for its symmetrical beauty and intricate inlay work.

🏰 Red Fort: Located in Delhi, the Red Fort is a sprawling fortress that served as the main residence of Mughal emperors. Its massive red sandstone walls, intricate carvings, and the stunning Diwan-i-Khas (Hall of Private Audience) are highlights of Mughal military architecture.

🌺 Fatehpur Sikri: Built by Emperor Akbar, this UNESCO World Heritage site served as the Mughal capital for a brief period. The city is home to several architectural gems, including the Buland Darwaza, Jama Masjid, and the Panch Mahal.

🌿 Shalimar Gardens: Commissioned by Emperor Jahangir in Srinagar, these gardens are a fine example of Mughal horticulture. The terraced layout, flowing water channels, and vibrant flora reflect the Mughal love for nature and symmetry.

🕌 Badshahi Mosque: Located in Lahore, Pakistan, this grand mosque was built by Emperor Aurangzeb. It is one of the largest mosques in the world and showcases the Mughal penchant for large domes and minarets.

The architectural marvels of the Mughal Empire continue to inspire awe and admiration, reflecting a rich legacy of artistic and cultural achievements.

LAHORE, December 24:

Chief Minister Punjab Mohsin Naqvi along with the Provincial Ministers participated in a prayer ceremony at the Cathedral Church so as toparticipate in the festivities of the Christian community on the eve of Christmas.

Bishop of Lahore Bishop Nadeem Kamran presented flowers to the Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi. CM Mohsin Naqvi cut the Christmas cake with Christian community. Bishop of Lahore, Bishop Nadeem Kamran presented a copy of the Bible and a sample of the Holy Zabur written by the hand of Hazrat Dawood (AS). CM while congratulating the Christian community on Christmas said that he wishes the Christian community a Happy Christmas. Tonight and tomorrow's day are very important for all of us. The Holy Christ is not only yours but ours also.

We are as happy as you are on the birth Anniversary of Holy Christ (AS). What we all have in common is that we worship one God.

We also worship the same God that you worship. From the Holy Prophet (SAW) to Quaid-e-Azam, from the beginning of Islam to the creation of Pakistan, we were well informed about the rights of our Christian brothers.

Mohsin Naqvi said that when the rights of Christian brothers are usurped, it is a matter of great shame that we have forgotten the teachings of the Holy Prophet (SAW). Our Pakistan is incomplete without Christian brothers. In the Pakistani flag, green colour is for the Muslims while white colour is for the minority communities. He said that no matter how much the Jaranwala incident is condemned is less. As a result of the Jaranwala incident, the affected churches and houses have been restored. The affectees have been redressed and our feelings are with the victims. CM underscored that every possible effort is being made to award strict punishment to the perpetrators of the Jaranwala incident or any such other incident.

Bishop Nadeem Kamran and Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad are working a lot for the unity of the country. Bishop Nadeem Kamran and Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad immediately reach wherever it is needed. It is our duty to provide complete security to our Christian brothers. The administration and police are vigorously active in providing foolproof security across Punjab. Christmas celebrations are being organized at the district level. We do not have to unite on any tragedy but have to live with unity the whole year. CM outlined that it is our religious and constitutional duty to provide protection to the minority communities.

Provincial Minister for Auqaf Azfar Ali Nasir, IG Police Dr. Usman Anwar, ACS, Khateeb Badshahi Masjid Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad also addressed the ceremony.

Provincial Ministers Mansoor Qadir, Aamir Mir, Azfar Ali Nasir, Bilal Afzal, Adviser Wahab Riaz, IG Police, ACS, Commissioner Lahore Division, CCPO, Secretary Human Rights and Minority Affairs, Secretary Auqaf, Secretary Information, Deputy Commissioner and prominent personalities of the Christian community participated in the ceremony.
