History

[edit]

The complex was constructed in 1748[1] for Qudsia Begum, the mother of Mughal emperor Ahmad Shah Bahadur. It is situated north of the old city. Formerly a splendid palace, it belonged to the heir apparent[2] before falling into disrepair.[3] Large parts of it were destroyed during the Indian Rebellion of 1857.[4]

Today only an entrance gate, the Shahi (Emperor's) mosque[5] and the stables remain.[6] Historian Hasan Zafar notes that the garden has been recorded as a protected monument in the Archaeological Survey of India records.[7] There are plans by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to rename Qudsia Bagh "MM Aggarwal Park", after the city commissioner, which has raised protests.
