The Supreme Court has dismissed the petition in which a woman had demanded occupation of the Red Fort in Delhi, describing herself as a descendant of the Mughals. The court asked the petitioner why only the Red Fort, why the Taj Mahal and Fatehpur Sikri should not be occupied, they have also been built by the Mughals.

A bench of Chief Justice Sanjeev Khanna and Justice Sanyaj Kumar dismissed the petition of petitioner Sultana Begum and said that the petition is completely wrong. Sultana Begum claims that she is a widow of Bahadur Shah Zafar II’s super -grandson. The bench said, ‘Why only ask for Red Fort? Why not Fatehpur Sikri and Taj Mahal. The writ petition is completely wrong, so it is rejected.

Supreme Court rejected Sultana Begum’s lawyer
Sultana Begum’s petition was dismissed by the Delhi High Court on the basis of delay in December last year, on which her lawyer told the Supreme Court that the petition was dismissed on the basis of delay in the High Court and not on the basis of merit, so the Supreme Court should give the same concession and dismiss it on the basis of delay. However, the Supreme Court refused to accept his demand.

Sultana Begum filed a petition in the High Court in the year 2021, which was rejected by a single judge bench. 900 days later, the petitioners reached the High Court. Here the bench of Justice Vibhu Bakru and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela dismissed the petition on the basis of a delay of two and a half years.

‘The British had taken away the Mughals’, the petitioner claims
The petitioner says that during the first freedom struggle in 1857, the British East India Company had denied Sultana Begum’s family illegally from property. After this, Bahadur Shah Zafar II was deported from the country and took the Red Fort from the capture of the Mughals. He says that and now the Government of India is illegal. Sultana Begum has demanded occupation of the Red Fort and compensation from the government.

What did the High Court say?
In its judgment of 2021, a single judge’s bench had said on the plea of ​​the petitioner, “Even if you assume that Bahadur Shah Zafar II was illegally denied the capture of the Red Fort by the East India Company, even after more than 164 years, how this petition was hearing, while the ancestors were always aware of this incident.”

After this decision of the single bench, Sultana Begum put a case before the Dividan bench of the High Court, but she took more than two and a half years in it. Because of this, the court refused to hear the petition and then she reached the Supreme Court.
