Cursed by saint, Tughlaqabad Fort gets few visitors
'Ya rahe ujjar ya base gujjar' which translates to 'either it will be left desolate or occupied by the nomadic herdsmen' is how Sufi saint Nizamuddin Auliya, according to folklores, had once cursed Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq, once Delhi's ruler. Today, the fort is frequented by land squatters. The ASI had already served 1,248 notices for various structural encroachments within the fort.
