Dubai's Taj mahal

Plans to build a mega replica of Taj Mahal in Dubai have prompted angry reaction from heritage groups in India, UAE daily newspaper 7DAYS reported on Tuesday.

The groups that include an ex-Indian mayor, called the Dubai project “wrong and absurd” and said it would “belittle’ the sacredness of the 460-year-old marble masterpiece, the report claimed.

Indian businessman Arun Mehra, who announced the launch of the project last month at the cost of $1 million (AED 3.6 billion), said that the Indian outcry is just out of jealousy.

“They [protesters] are jealous … of course they are. Obviously,” Mehra was quoted as saying by 7DAYS.

“I’ve observed the comments that came out from the ex-mayor of Agra (the home of Taj Mahal) saying tourism is going to drop, but once people come and see ours, they’ll go and see theirs,” he added.

Taj Arabia, which Mehra confirmed will be finished by the end of 2014 and will be four times bigger than the original Taj Mahal, will be primarily a hotel - with the ability to host wedding parties for up to 3,000 guests.
