The Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC), which has restored the Humayun’s Tomb complex as well as the Jamaat Khana Masjid, one of the oldest monuments in Delhi built during Alauddin Khilji’s time, has been entrusted the task of conserving Telangi’s tomb, situated in the Nizamuddin Basti area. Neetipal Brar of AKTC said the task of restoration of the monument would be tough and time-consuming as they could not bring in heavy equipment. The narrow street will not allow vehicles to pass, making the removal of waste material or bringing in construction material difficult.
