Question

If there is a garden in the world, who said it is my India?​

Answer 1

Answer:

However, Prof Sunil Sharma, an authority on Hazrat Amir Khusrau, said no diwan or masnawi of Hazrat Amir Khusrau includes it. Since the conclusive proof regarding authorship of a verse is its presence in his collected works – was it his or not?

This led me to research the verse, including spending a good few hours searching the Black Pavilion in Shalimar Bagh in Srinagar, Kashmir as there is a common perception that the original verse was inscribed in the Black Pavilion built during the early part of Emperor Jahangir’s reign (1569-1627) on the top terrace of Shalimar Bagh. Emperor Jahangir was a connoisseur of beauty so it was entirely possible that he should have it inscribed.
