Supreme Court Questions Aga Khan Trust's Management of Delhi Heritage Sites
The Supreme Court expressed serious concerns over the Aga Khan Trust's management of heritage sites in Delhi, including Sunder Nursery and the Delhi Golf Club. The court questioned the government's decision to grant the trust control over large portions of public heritage land and criticized restoration work that covered original inscriptions with lime plaster. It also raised issues about commercial activities like restaurants within the publicly owned Sunder Nursery. The court has sought explanations from the trust and government, warning of potential legal action if conservation standards are not met.
