'Misconceived': SC rejects woman's plea claiming possession of Red Fort as legal 'heir'

IndiaTimes Monday, 5 May 2025

The court questioned why only the Red Fort was being claimed and not other historical sites. Begum argued her family was wrongfully deprived of the fort after the 1857 war of independence.
