Read
the following passage carefully and answer the questions (4 to 9) :
The
Taj Mahal has become one of the world’s best known monuments. This domed white
marble
structure is situated on a high plinth at the southern end of a four-quartered
garden,
evoking
the gardens of paradise, enclosed within walls measuring 305 by 549 metres.
Outside
the
walls, in an area known as Mumtazabad, were living quarters for attendants,
markets, serais
and
other structures built by local merchants and nobles. The tomb complex and the
other
imperial
structures of Mumtazabad were maintained by the income of thirty villages given
specifically
for the tomb’s support. The name Taj Mahal is unknown in Mughal chronicles, but
it is
used by contemporary Europeans in India, suggesting that this was the tomb’s
popular
name.
In contemporary texts, it is generally called simply the Illuminated Tomb
(Rauza-i-
Munavvara).
Mumtaz
Mahal died shortly after delivering her fourteenth child in 1631. The Mughal
court
was then residing in Burhanpur. Her remains were temporarily buried by the
griefstricken
emperor
in a spacious garden known as Zainabad on the bank of the river Tapti. Six
months
later her body was transported to Agra, where it was interred in land chosen
for the
mausoleum.
This land, situated south of the Mughal city on the bank of the Jamuna, had
belonged
to the Kachhwaha rajas since the time of Raja Man Singh and was purchased from
the
then current raja, Jai Singh. Although contemporary chronicles indicate Jai
Singh’s willing
cooperation
in this exchange, extant farmans (imperial commands) indicate that the
final price
was
not settled until almost two years after the mausoleum’s commencement. Jai
Singh’s
further
cooperation was insured by imperial orders issued between 1632 and 1637
demanding
that
he provide stone masons and carts to transport marble from the mines at
Makrana, within
his
“ancestral domain”, to Agra where both the Taj Mahal and Shah Jahan’s additions
to the
Agra
fort were constructed concurrently.
Work
on the mausoleum was commenced early in 1632. Inscriptional evidence indicates
much
of the tomb was completed by 1636. By 1643, when Shah Jahan most lavishly
celebrated
the
‘Urs ceremony for Mumtaz Mahal’, the entire complex was virtually complete
.
