Malcha Mahal, New Delhi

Malcha Mahal in Delhi was a historical village inhabited by

thousands of Villagers in 1600 A.D.
There are only two people living in here now, a brother and
a sister who are direct descendants of Nawab Wajid Ali
Shah of Oudh. Nawab Wajid Ali was deposed by the British
more than a century ago and all his property was seized.
In 1985, Government of India gave the custody to the royal
descendant Begum Wilayat Mahal of Awadh, later renamed
as Wilayat Mahal.
She, in an attempt to humiliate the government, lived in
the waiting room of New Delhi railway station for a long
time until the government agreed to compensate in the
form of Malcha Mahal in 1985.
 But by then, Malcha Mahal, a centuries old building was
in ruins and out of pain and Mental stress Begum Wilayat
Mahal committed suicide by drinking crushed diamonds.
No one knows how true the stories are but it is said that
after Begum Wilayat Mahal died, her dead body remained
lying on a table for 10 days while her kids mourned in
grief.
She left behind her two kids, Princess Sakina and Prince
Riaz, few Dobermans & German Shepherds and some
royal treasure.
It is also said that the night before Prince Riaz buried her,
both the kids slept with their mothers dead body and
ever since then, Prince Sakina has only wore black.
 Both siblings live in the Mahal with absolutely no
interaction with the world outside the palace, confines
with their mothers ashes and their fierce hound dogs.
They have also been given a revolver and permission
to shoot in self-protection by the Lt. Governor of Delhi.
Today, the dungeon is guarded by over a dozen dogs
and high shrubs and grills around the premise.
They once had 27 dogs but today, only 9 are left.
Others have been poisoned by local thieves, who
have also stolen a huge silver table some gold and
silver tableware from the palace.
 Rumors of Malcha Mahal paranormal activities are
spread among the people, even the forest officers
keep a safe distance from this place.
It is said that numerous people who have attempted to
enter the royal palace premises have not returned.
Now the question which arises is this-Is it right to
enlist this place as one of the Haunting places in India?
Is it true that this place is now a home for ghosts? Or
is there another story behind all these reports?
Being a historical place, people also believe that there
is hidden treasure buried in these ruins; and hence
there have been countless efforts of robbery.
 There is a sign board hung at the entry gate of Malcha
Mahal in Delhi advising people to stay away and beware
of Hound dogs and that any trespasser could be gunned
down.
Afraid of these robbery attempts on regular basis, the
government gave the royal family rights to self-
protection.
They have been given licensed guns and authority to
shoot anyone who they deem dangerous or threatening.
It could be said that since after their right to shoot, the
incidents of people disappearing started once they
enter the Mahal.
It could also be derived that it is only a myth about the
paranormal activity in Malcha Mahal, while the reality
could be something totally human and normal.
