Gagan Mahal after renevation, conservation and restoration
Golgumbad.com appriciates the Arch. Survey of India ASi and
its restoration staff for the commendable job done. Indeed
such kind of agood work of restoration is required for other
old monuments of Bijapur, Forts and wells, talabs are required.
STANDING TALL: A view of the Gagan Mahal, an Adil Shahi monument
in Bijapur, which has been renovated by the Archaeological
Survey India.
BIJAPUR: Gagan Mahal, one of the most majestic buildings of
the Adil Shahi era, has got a facelift, thanks to a major
conservation work taken up by the Archaeological Survey of
India (ASI).
The building, constructed in the second half of the 16th century
by Ali Adil Shah, once served as a durbar hall.
As the name suggests, Gagan (sky) Mahal is a high-rise building,
situated in the heart of Bijapur city on an area of 124 ft
x 82 ft.
Its roof, floor and side galleries were ruined long ago. However,
its walls, pillars and arches are intact. The huge arch in
the front portion gives it a majestic look. The bottom width
of the central arch is 60 feet, nine inches with an amazing
height. “This is the tallest and broad arch built by
the Adil Shahis,” said H.G. Daddi, a researcher and
writer of a book on Adil Shahi monuments.
The remains of the structure almost collapsed with most of
the walls caving in, including a part of main arch. However,
the Archaeological Department took steps to plaster the walls.
According to Somla Naik, senior conservation officer with
the ASI, plastering was done to give the wall an ancient look.
Moreover, no modern day bonding material such as cement concrete
was used. Instead, a mix of limestone, sand, jaggery, bale-fruit
and jute and brick pieces was used as bonding agent as it
was done in the times of the Adil Shahis. This would enhance
the life of the building at least by 100 years, Mr. Naik said.
The lush green lawn maintained by the department has enhanced
the beauty of the monument which stood testimony to several
historical events. It is the same place where Sikandar Ali
Shah was produced before Moghul emperor Aurangzeb after the
latter conquered the Adil Shahi kingdom in 1689. History has
it that Sikandar Ali Shah was then shackled in a silver chain.
Also, Gagan Mahal is where Afzal Khan, a high-profile brigadier
in the Adil Shahi Army, vowed to capture Chatrapati Shivaji,
a Maratha king, dead or alive. However, he was lured into
a trap laid by the Maratha king. Specifically for this reason,
tourists visiting Bijapur, especially those from Maharashtra,
do not leave without visiting Gagan Mahal.
