Medieval-era Sheesh Mahal Unveiled in Shalimar Bagh

The restoration of Shalimar Bagh was undertaken on the initiative and under the direct supervision of the L-G Saxena, who first took serious note of the dilapidated and crumbling heritage structures—buried under silt and overgrown vegetation due to decades of neglect—during his visit to the site in January last year. The responsibility of restoring this heritage site was entrusted to the DDA under the technical supervision of the ASI.
