Description
It is one of the grandest works of architecture on the planet. But these days, critics insist that this monument to undying love is at risk of collapsing into the river that runs beside it. Conservators who guard it dispute the claims. The over 360-year-old monument is under serious pressure from the effects of climate change, pollution and mass tourism. After the Mumbai attacks, security is also a serious concern. We follow the controversy as two groups examine the Taj's stability and discuss ways to save it from collapse.
