Akhilesh Yadav Viral Video: In such a place, timelessness and architectural brilliance apart, the Taj Mahal has recently faced an unusual problem that has drawn much attention towards itself. A plant has grown on the main dome of this monument, and in so doing, an incident hatched concerns about the preservation of that world-famous structure. The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) promptly replied to the notice as it seemed to be doing well on the dome facing the Yamuna river. Such incidents, according to Raj Kumar Patel, ASI Superintendent, were not uncommon as dust, water, and bird droppings can promote plant growth on historical monuments. The ASI promptly yanked out the plant in the attempt to prevent mishaps to the monument.
Plant Growth on Taj Mahal Dome Sparks Concern
The issue not only grabbed public focus but also attracted political flak. Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav targeted the government for what appeared as a case of negligence to protect Taj Mahal. In a tweet, Akhilesh Yadav highlighted some issues:
- The possible rusting of the metal urn atop the main dome.
- Water seepage from the dome.
- Problematic growth of plants which if its root spread further may be cause damage to the structure.
- Monkeys present in the Taj Mahal complex.
- Waterlogging of the complex.
- Tourists’ satisfaction regarding the conditions of the monument.
Akhilesh Yadav Criticizes Government for Neglecting Taj Mahal Maintenance
Yadav shares that issues depict a bad scenario of BJP government that defames nation image before international tourists visiting India. He criticizes their proper allocation as well as utilization and further criticized the management of the government regarding such a huge amount for Taj Mahal as it is not being used correspondingly. It should be utilized under active and effective management instead of mere name preservation of the monument.
With this growing crowd of visitors to the Taj Mahal, urgent answers to these restorative issues are in demand. This architectural wonder’s preservation is not just a reservation of a national heritage but also constitutes India’s international legitimacy regarding cultural heritage.
