The artist and the workers of this art showpiece are the great grand children of the builders of the world famous Taj Mahal, employed by the architect Mr. Manuhaar, Mr Zhatmal and Mr. Julawat Singh all HINDU, while the writing from the Holy QURAN on the Taj Mahal was under the supervision of Caliographer Mr. Amanat Khan and Mr.Shiraji , the designor of the Taj Mahal was Mr Ahmed Lahori and Mr. Mukarmat Khan, while the garden was decorated by Mr Radmal Kashmiri, all these persons were employed by the King Shah Jehan who got this monument constructed for his beloved queen Mumtaj. The Taj Mahal was termed as "TEARS" by the noble prize winner Sir Ravindra Nath Tagore because queen Mumtaj, the beloved wife of King Shahjehan in whose memory the monument was constructed died delivering her 16th child.
