The Nawabs of Rampur were able to keep their state intact despite the tur moil of the 18th and 19th-century. As they negotiated their sovereign status vis-à-vis the new masters of the realm — the British — Rampur became a 15-gun salute princely state of British India (a British system of ranking princely states by deciding how many guns need to open up in salute every time the heads of the states made ceremonial visits to Britishadministered provinces).</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">The state had to renegotiate its sovereignty with free India and became the first princely state to merge with the Indian Union in 1949. This was under Nawab Raza Ali Khan. When he died in 1966, he had three wives, three sons and six daughters. His eldest son, Murtaza Ali Khan, succeeded him, and the government recognised him as the sole inheritor of all his father’s private properties and issued a certificate to this effect.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">But his brother Zulfiquar Ali Khan, married to former Lok Sabha member Noor Bano Begum, challenged this in court. This was the genesis of the property dispute in which the courts were asked to decide if inheritance should be based on Muslim personal law or the unique gaddi system the royal family followed before joining the Indian Union. The case went on for 47 years until in July 2019, the Supreme Court decided in favour of Muslim personal law which recognised all sons and daughters as legal heirs. This totted up to 16 descendants. The SC set a deadline of December 2020 to resolve the dispute.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">But even as a government monitored audit of the palaces, guns, vehicles and jewellery is taking place, there are five new claimants — descendants of the Nawab’s youngest sister Nawabzadi Kulsoom Begum or Nanhi Begum.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">Her grandson Salman Ali Khan says, “As the sister of Raza Ali Khan and daughter of Nawab Hamid Ali Khan, my grandmother has a right in the property as do we”.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">Apart from Salman, the new claimants are Sherouth Ali Khan, Sanam Ali Khan, Saira Ali Khan and Mehrunissa Begum, the daughterin-law of Nanhi Begum. “My grandmother was merely 10 years old when her father Hamid Ali Khan passed away.
