Slow mysterious music begins Narrator In the state of Assam in Northeast India there is a small valley Jatinga By day it is a quiet beautiful place But on monsoon nights it becomes the stage for a terrifying mystery Every year on dark foggy nights between August and November birds commit a strange mass suicide Sounds of birds chirping and flapping wings Narrator Locals tell that in the dark of night birds fall from the sky as if they were being pulled by some invisible force They collide with houses trees and roads often found injured or dead These birds are both migratory and local and they behave absolutely normal during the day But at night they become disorientated and confused Sounds of strong winds and light rain Narrator Scientists have come up with several theories Some believe that the phenomenon is caused by strong winds and fog during the monsoon which confuses the birds Some others say it may be due to geomagnetic anomalies which affect the birds internal compass But no t...

Agra Fort An Immortal Story

-

   Slow mysterious           music begins


Centuries ago on the banks of the Yamuna River stood a massive red stone fort which we today call the Agra Fort It is not just a building made of stone and bricks but a silent witness to the rise and fall of the Mughal Empire

Sound effect sound of horses hooves in the distance

Flipping through the pages of history we find that the fort was earlier under the rule of Rajput kings but in 1558 Akbar the Great conquered it and made it the capital of the Mughal Empire He renovated the fort covered it with red sandstone and built grand palaces mosques and durbars

Sound effect sweet sound of shehnai



Imagine Akbars court where courtiers sit dressed in fine costumes where music and dance are held where justice and governance are discussed Diwane Aam Diwane Khas Jahangir Mahal Moti Masjid Sheesh Mahal  each building tells its own story

Sound effect Slow clang of swords

Then came Shah Jahan who adorned the fort with his art along with the Taj Mahal a symbol of his love He built many buildings with white marble the carvings and inlay work of which are a sight to behold But destiny had something else in store

Sound effect Sad music

Shah Jahan spent his last days imprisoned in this fort His own son Aurangzeb kept him captive here It is said that Shah Jahan used to gaze at the Taj Mahal from the windows of the fort lost in the memories of his Begum Mumtaz Mahal

Sound effect Chirping of birds


Today when we roam inside this fort we get a glimpse of those bygone days The red stone walls tall domes and intricate carvings all remind us of the era when the Mughal Empire was at its peak

Sound effect sound of river waves

Standing on the banks of the Yamuna River this fort is a witness to the ups and downs of history It tells us how an empire was built and how it collapsed The Agra Fort is not just a monument but a living history that continues to inspire us even today connecting us to our culture and heritage
