Cracks in Taj Mahal
AGRA, Monday: Three wide cracks have appeared in the main structure of the Taj Mahal, the famed white marble tomb of Mogul Em-press Mumtaz Mahal at Agra.
The cracks, in plaster in-side rooms of the octagonal building, are being examined by experts.
A portion of the outer courtyard wall has col-lapsed, which may be due to heavy flooding which af-fected the area round the Taj
Mahal last autumn.
