Heritage Sites of Bhopal
Taj-ul-Masajid

History
The construction work of this mosque started
in the reign of the Mughal Emperor Bahadur
Shah Zafar by Nawab Shah Jahan Begum
(1844–1860 and 1868–1901) of Bhopal (Wife of
Nawab Syed Siddiq Hasan Khan) and continued
to be built by her daughter Sultan Jahan
Begum, till her lifetime. The mosque was not
completed due to lack of funds, and after a long
lay-off after the War of 1857, construction was
resumed in 1971 by Allama Mohammad Imran
Khan Nadwi Azhari and Maulana Sayed
Hashmat Ali Sahab of Bhopal. The construction
was completed by 1985 and the entrance
(eastern) gate was renovated grandly using
ancient motifs from circa 1250 Syrian mosques
by the contribution of the Emir of Kuwait to
commemorate the memory of his departed
wife.
Architecture
The mosque has a pink facade topped by two 18-storey high
octagonal minarets with marble domes, an impressive main hallway with
attractive pillars and marble flooring resembling Mughal architecture the
likes of Jama Masjid in Delhi and the huge Badshahi Mosque of Lahore. It
has a courtyard with a large tank in the centre. It has a double-storeyed
Architecture gateway with four recessed archways and nine cusped multifold
openings in the main prayer hall. The massive pillars in the hall hold 27
And ceilings through squinted arches of which 16 ceilings are decorated with
ornate petaled designs.
Annual
Congregation Annual Congregation
Aalmi Tablighi Ijtima is an annual three-day congregation that
draws people from all over the world. It was held at Taj-ul-
Masajid until it was shifted to Islam Nagar outside the city due
to shortage of space.

Kamalapati Palace

History
Kamalapati Palace lies on the eastern side of the ancient embankment known
as Bhojpal, built by the Parmara King Bhoj (AD 1010-1055) from which the
present name Bhopal is derived. The existing structure is a part of the palace
which was constructed by Rani Kamlapati, the widow of Nizam Shah, General
Chief of Ginnogarh in AD 1722. On the Western side of this palace are the
remains of Fatehgarh Fort on the hill which was built by Sardar Dost
Mohammad of Bhopal (AD 1708-1726) who laid the foundation of
modern Bhopal. Kamlapati palace is an example of contemporary secular
architecture of the early eighteenth century and the earliest extant example in
the Bhopal Town. This double storied building is constructed of lakhauri
bricks having a facade with cusped arches supported on the fluted pillars,
merlons having the shape of lotus petals and brackets supporting the
Chhajjas.This monument was declared protected by the Government of India
in 1989 and since then Archaeological Survey of India remains the custodian.

Moti Masjid

Moti Masjid is one of the many mosques located in


Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Even though the mosque is
relatively smaller in size as compared to the other
exquisite and historical monuments that stand
majestically in the 'city of mosques', the Moti Masjid is
of equal importance. This famous historic landmark
was built by Sikander Jehan Begum of Bhopal,
daughter of Qudusiya Begum, in the year 1860.
Sikander Begum was an unconventional woman who
abolished slavery and set up the trend of the
progressive woman in the entire city. Popularly known
as the Pearl Mosque, the mosque is located in the
heart of the city and represents the rich history of the
Bhopal Begums in India.
The architecture of the Moti Masjid in Bhopal has a
striking resemblance to the architecture of the Jama
Masjid in Delhi, except for the size. The Moti Masjid
features a white marble facade with two small cupolas
on the top. The two dark red towers on either side of
the primary structure of the mosque are equally
beautiful and fascinating.
Source- Internet 29
Shaukat Mahal

The Shaukat Mahal was constructed in the 1830s as a


wedding gift for Sikander Jahan Begum, the first
female ruler of Bhopal. Architecturally it is a bit of an
oddity compared to other buildings in the heart of
Bhopal, the building has many western elements
combining both gothic and islamic themes. This is
due to the design being attributed to the Bourbons
of Bhopal, widely considered to be descendants of
renowned French kings.
Up until 2015 the building was in a terrible state with
ceilings collapsed and wide cracks appearing on the
majestic facade and interior walls. Despite this the
building still housed 21 families, but their safety
became a concern as the Mahal continued to decay.
This all sounds very familiar, a situation that the Taj
Mahal Palace in Bhopal has also experienced. But all
is not lost, as with the Taj Mahal Palace there are
plans in place to renovate the building, and here
they have already made an excellent start to that
Source- Internet process. 30
Taj Mahal Palace

The Taj Mahal at Bhopal was built as the Begum's


residence, at a cost of ₹ 3,000,000. Its construction
spanned over a period of 13 years, from 1871 to
1884. It was one of the largest palaces of the world
built at that time.
The building was originally named Raj Mahal ("royal
palace"). The British Resident at Bhopal, highly
impressed with the architecture, suggested that the
palace be renamed the Taj Mahal, the Taj
Mahal at Agra having been built by the Begum's
namesake Shah Jahan. The begum accepted the
suggestion and the palace was renamed to Taj
Mahal. The Begum is said to have ordered a three-
year-long celebration called Jashn-e-Taj
Mahal after the completion of the building.

Source- Internet 31
The architecture of Taj Mahal
has British, French, Mughal, Arabic and Hindu influences. T
he palace contains 120 rooms, a hall of mirrors or sheesh
mahal and the savon bhadon pavilion, an elaborate
fountain like structure that simulated the effect of rain. The
Architecture main entrance is a seven-storied structure. The palace
was part of a complex of buildings along the three lakes
that includes the Benazir Palace, which was the begum's
summer palace, and the Taj-ul-Masjid Mosque. The
palace has been built in the Indo-Saracenic style and is
kept cool by the winds blowing in from the lakes.

PARKING

• Parking is an essential component of the


transportation system.

• Affects the ease of reaching destinations and


therefore affects overall accessibility.

• One of the key links between transport network


and land-use

• Problems can be often defined either in terms of


supply (too few spaces are available, somebody
must build more) or in terms of management
(available facilities are used inefficiently and
should be better managed).

PARKING SUPPLY • Total parking supply – 14826


• 385 ECS is legal off street supply which is owned
by the corporation and managed by private
contractors.
• Parking lots are having only parking for four
wheeler
• Thus all two wheeler parking ends up on the road.
• This creates obstruction in free vehicular
movement.

• Due to lack of proper parking for 2 wheelers, people park on
roads.
• There is no proper system of on-street parking this leads to
absurd parking on roads.
• People park on streets for long duration of time, this causes
inconvenience for people just want a quick stop.
• Roads are narrow near some residential places this forces

CASE STUDY- PRAYAGRAJ

Parking was a major problem in the city due to insufficient off-street parking facility, unorganized off-street
parking. During peak hours proper parking spaces got filled by local traders and shop owners itself. It was
observed that 56% was 2-wheelers, 32% was 4-wheelers and rest was 3 wheelers or NMT.

There was a large demand and supply gap, as there was excess demand for on-street parking as there was
inadequate off-street parking, lack of organised on-street parking facilities, and lack of strict enforcement
mechanism, vehicles were parked on-street in an unorganised manner which caused congestion and reduction of
traffic speed.

This demanded for the creation of off-street parking and organized on-street parking facilities.

Although there is on-street parking and proper enforcement but still
due to shortage of off-street parking there is congestion.

To reduce this planning only for proper parking is not sufficient, we


have to think about NMT and pedestrian movements as well.

PROPOSALS

Create a parking management unit that brings together urban local bodies, traffic police, and other stakeholders.
Staff the parking management unit with competent professionals who are capable of monitoring system
operations. Engage service providers to set up and operate the system in return for a performance-based service
fee.

For better management of parking we can adhere to the following-


1. Implement Smart Parking System
2. Use parking revenue to build people friendly streets
3. Price parking to manage demand
4. Restrict the supply of parking
5. Improve access to transit

HERITAGE CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT

The Bhopal city is an amalgamation of different layers of Hindu, Islamic


and Colonial periods. The urban image of the city is a collective visual
appearance contributed by natural and manmade elements. The lakes,
hills, and heritage buildings, are significant parts of the traditional form of
the city that gives the city its heritage identity. The lakes, hills, and heritage
buildings, are significant parts of the traditional form of the city that gives
the city its heritage identity. The heritage areas which are interwoven with
natural features of city are the identity of the city. This unique urban
heritage contributing to the city identity and its image ought to be
preserved. Bhopal is gifted with rare monuments and splendid areas of
vulnerable architecture. The built heritage, comprising areas such as
Jumerati Gate, Jama Masjid, Moti Masjid, and Gauhar Mahal, etc., ought to

IMPLEMENTATION AND RESOURCE MOBILIZATION

The plan or detailed proposals that shall be given in the Heritage Conservation and Management Plan
prepared by the urban local body can be implemented by the private sector. The basic idea is to follow the
“Adopt A Heritage” scheme initiated by the Ministry of Tourism.

The private company that shall adopt the heritage monument shall be known as “Monument Mitra”. The would
be tasked to analyse the existing scenario, prepare a visionary plan for the monument they adopt taking into
consideration the future demand of the place. Once the plan gets approved by the urban local body, the
“Monument Mitra” shall implement it and the run it for a certain period of time and the transfer it to the
government. Apart from revenue gain, the Monument Mitra shall have rights to the advertise in the site,
provided that it does not hinder the heritage feature of the site.

WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT

125
Case study :Sabarmati riverfront development

126
NEED FOR RIVERFRONT DEVELOPMENT

The intensive uses took their toll on the river.

• Untreated sewage flowed into the river


through storm water outfalls and dumping of
industrial waste posed a major health and
environmental hazard. Original condition of the river near Vadaj

• The river bank settlements were disastrously


prone to floods and lacked basic
infrastructure facilities. Lacklustre
development took shape along the riverfront.
Such conditions made the river inaccessible and
it became a virtual divide between the two parts
of the city.
127
PROJECT OBJECTIVES

• The project aims to provide Ahmedabad with a meaningful waterfront environment along the banks of the Sabarmati River
and to redefine an identity of Ahmedabad around the river. The project looks to reconnect the city with the river and
positively transform the neglected aspectsof the riverfront.

• The objectives of this multidimensional project can be categorized under three topics-

• Environmental Improvement: reduction in erosion and flood to safeguard the city; sewage diversion to clean the
river; water retention and recharge.

• Social Infrastructure: rehabilitation and resettlement of riverbed dwellers and activities; creation of parks and public
spaces; provision of socio-cultural amenities for thecity.

• Sustainable Development: generation of resources, revitalization of neighborhoods

128
THE CHALLENGES

• 12000 hutments on both banks of the river


occupying nearly 20% of critical project
area.

• Unorganized Gujari Bazaar of more than


1200 vendors on the eastern bank and
Court Litigation.

• Nearly 200 Dhobis using both the banks


of the river for washing activities.

• Thoroughly polluted and contaminated


Sabarmati through 40 storm water outlets.

Success stories

• The Sabarmati Riverfront Project add almost 10,00,000 sq. mts. of parks, promenades and
plazas to Ahmedabad.
• The Sabarmati Riverfront Project help provide Ahmedabad with manynew cultural trade and
social institutions (36,000 Sq.m).
• Creating of City Level Recreational Activities – Water Sports and Floating
restaurants.
• Tourist attraction.
• Recharge of Ground water Aquifers of the city
• Continuous Green coverage along the river corridor.
• Elimination of Flood Hazard.
• Creating Vibrant Urban neighborhoods and beautification of the city.
• Achieved A Multidimensional Environmental Improvement, Social Upliftment and Urban
Rejuvenation Project

Case study – “Intelligent Streets”, LONDON
• Installed in 2017.
• Traffic free, sustainable technology.
• Kinetic energy is used to meet the street’s energy needs along with solar energy.
• Working –
The flooring Is vertically displaced. Electromagnetic induction creates kinetic energy
which can be used to power devices.

• With one step – the pavement displaces vertically for


5mm. With per footstep – it generates 3 joules or 5 watts
of continuous power.
• That energy is either directly supplied to nearby
electronics or stored in a lithium polymer battery.
• Nine steps are enough to power one bulb.

• Data about people's movements can be tracked via wireless technology, so the number of
footfalls and information about generated energy can be stored and analyzed in order to
monitor the effectiveness and efficiency of the project.
• Areas where the technology has already been trialed –
• Olympic park
• Heathrow airport
• Shell football pitch in Rio de Janeiro
• Saint-Omer train station in France
• Indoor as well as outdoor use.

Water quality analysis of upper lake and lower lake

The Upper Lake has both rural and urban catchments. With a
well-protected catchment, its water quality was of potable
standard until recently. In the last few decades of the 20th
century, however, many sections of the lake became surrounded
by habitations as the city grew.

These developments have generated anthropogenic pressures


on the lake, thus accelerating its eutrophication and microbial
contamination, and making the water unfit for human
consumption without proper treatment. Because the Lower Lake
is located within a completely urban catchment, it has been
subjected to many negative anthropogenic stresses, its water
quality degradation has been much more pronounced than for
the Upper Lake.

Problems and causes

140
• The quality of lake water has degraded over time due to waste
disposal and pollution and they are in dire need of regular and
proper cleaning.
Periodic • Also, Sea bins will be put to use
Cleaning • Per year they can catch:
• 90,000 plastic bags
• 35,700 disposable cups
• 16,500 disposable water bottles
• 166,500 plastic utensils

Sydney – SEABIN PROJECT
• The Sea bins were installed to prevent any more
deterioration of the Sydney harbour.
• In 12 months, 28 tonnes of marine debris was
captured and 4.3 billion litres of water was filtered.
• It is a smart-tech project solely focused on
environment.

The lakes are the ground water source of the water supply system of the city. The degradation
of quality of water must be prevented and sea bins can be of great use.
• The lakes contribute scenic and economic value. Cleaner lakes are better suited for the
heritage zone.

The city of Bhopal has a rich heritage but there is no place for
Heritage people to know it all.

Display Hence, a Heritage display Is planned along the VIP road to


exhibit pictures, videos and information about the history and
heritage of the city.
This corridor is to powered with solar power and the power to be
generated by the mechanism used in the pedestrian.
