Taziadari in Fatehgarh Cantonment

 









Dr.Mazhar Naqvi

Fatehgrah Cantonment has a unique association with Taziadari. During Muharram, Tazias were kept in the central hall of the old building of the military hospital. The confirmation comes from the official website of Indian Army and official blog of Rajput regiment.It states “ The present Military Hospital, Fatehgarh was the palace of Nawab Hakim Mehdi Ali Khan. He was several times Vazir (Prime Minister) of Oudh. He raised himself from the condition of a soldier of fortune to the high post, and made himself a millionaire. The center room with its mass columns was used by Nawab Hakim Mehdi Ali Khan as his 'Tazia Khana' where he kept the tazias or models of the tomb of king Husain, for displaying at religious festivals. The Palace was self sufficient with all requirements for a Nawab including a bathing pool. The palace was converted to a military hospital on reoccupation of Fatehgarh by the British.”

Hakim was  One of the most influential persons in the court of Oudh during the rule of Nawab Saadat Ali. His successor Badshah Ghazi Udddin Haider dismissed him and deprived was deprived of all his public offices, much of his property and even imprisoned.On his release, he settled at Fatehgarh and developed business interest in indigo plantation. Hakim spent almost 15 years at Fatehgarh from 1822 to 1837.He twice served as Prime Minister of Oudh. His second term lasted for about two months only. Hakim died in Lucknow.
