The Indian government is protesting a $58 million life-size replica of the Taj Mahal being built outside Dacca by Bangladeshi film director Ahsanullah Moni.
Moni began construction of the monument five years ago, importing marble and granite from Italy and diamonds from Belgium. Moni said he wants to make the monument accessible, “Everyone dreams about seeing the Taj Mahal but very few Bangladeshis can make the trip because it’s too expensive for them.” |
