By the 18th century, the Mughal Sultanate was counting its last breaths. Nadir Shah’s attack on Delhi had started. Meanwhile, the strength of the British also increased. At that time, the hobby of alcohol, shabab and churning was speaking in the Mughal court. The then Mughal emperor Naseeruddin Muhammad Shah (which was called Rangeela due to colorful mood) was lost in his courtiers and lovers. In the gardens of the Red Fort, the glory of the glory was Delhi’s Tawaifs. There was a name in these, Noor Bai.
William Delerimple and Anita Anand’s book Kohinoor: Nur Bai is mentioned in the world’s most famous diamond story. Noor Bai was the famous Tawaif of Old Delhi. The big nobles and Umrao of Delhi used to come to his beauty and style. It is said that the fans of Noor Bai had also become emperor Mohammad Shah. Not only this, the emperor always deployed two elephants outside his mansion. Noor used to ride on them and roam the streets of Delhi. Staying so close to the emperor, Noor Bai came to know the secret of Kohinoor diamond, which only a few people knew.
Kohinoor diamond was the pride of India
Kohinoor, who was once the pride and identity of India, the emperors used to keep hiding in his turban. Noor Bai had received information about this diamond, but there was no love for the king in his mind. When Nadir Shah attacked Delhi, Nur Bai gave him the news of Kohinoor’s secret.
Turban changing ritual and theft of Kohinoor
Nadir Shah, while showing cleverness, called Emperor Mohammad Shah in the name of the peace agreement. On the pretext of performing a ritual, he changed the turban with the emperor and thus the world’s most precious diamond Kohinoor went away from the Mughal Sultanate forever.
The legacy of deception and the journey of Kohinoor
Noor Bai’s conspiracy and Nadir Shah’s cleverness snatched the gem from India, whose glow still dazzling the world. Kohinoor later went into the hands of Afghan, Sikh and British rulers. Finally it became the pride of the British Empire and is still in the British Crown Jewels.
