Taj Mahal's Land Belonged To Jaipur's Hindu Royal Family, Claims BJP MP Diya Kumari

BJP MP Diya Kumari claimed that Shah Jahan captured a Hindu palace to build Taj Mahal. On May 11, Kumari said, the land in which Taj Mahal is built, belonged to a royal family from Jaipur. She further stated that they have documents in support of the claim, and are ready to furnish before any court, if necessary. "Shah Jahan liked it (the land) so he acquired it," said Kumari.
