00:00We have Himanshu Rai with us to give us more information about the legal side of the matter.

00:08When the merger took place in 1949, there was an agreement between Nawab Hamidullah Khan and the Central Government.

00:17There was a clause number 7, which stated that under the Bhopal Uttaradhikar Act of 1947,

00:27Uttaradhikarita will be decided.

00:32Under that Act, it was stipulated that whoever is a Bhopal Nawab,

00:37if they have daughters, then the eldest daughter will be considered Uttaradhikari.

00:46But if they have a son, then the son will be considered Uttaradhikari.

00:50Because Nawab Hamidullah Khan had three daughters,

00:53Abida Sultan, Sajida Sultan and Rabia Sultan.

00:56Abida Sultan was living outside of India, in Pakistan.

01:01After the merger agreement in 1949, the Central Government accepted Sajida Sultan as the heir.

01:08Because a non-Indian, who is a citizen of Pakistan, could not be given the title of Nawab.

01:16The Central Government accepted Sajida Sultan as the heir.

01:19But after that, when the Shatru Sampatti Adhiniyam was passed,

01:23in that Shatru Sampatti Adhiniyam, the Central Government decided that

01:28because Sajida Sultan has been accepted against the principles of the Uttaradhikar Adhiniyam,

01:34so all these properties will be considered as Abida Sultan's.

01:38And because Abida Sultan lives in an enemy country,

01:41so that Shatru Sampatti will be accepted.

01:43But now, there is a controversy in the present,

01:46that the Central Government has recognized Sajida Sultan,

01:49and under the Adhiniyam, Abida Sultan had to be recognized.

01:53So, is the notification of the Central Government of 1962 correct?

01:59Or, under the principles of Shatru Sampatti Adhiniyam, Abida Sultan should be considered as the heir?

02:04So, a new controversy has started.

02:06So, in such a situation, can Saif Ali Nawab, Bhopal Nawab, be used as the title?

02:12Look, at this time, if we look at it legally,

02:16then the title of Nawab is with Saif Ali Khan.

02:20Because till now, no court or any Central Government has issued any notification

02:25and given the title of Nawab to anyone else.

02:28So, in the present, Saif Ali Khan is the Nawab of Bhopal.

02:32Until the Central Government issues a notification and removes him.

02:37In that Adhiniyam, it is not clear that Bhopal,

02:41because at that time, when it was made in 1947,

02:43there was no mention of India and Pakistan.

02:45But according to that merger agreement, the Adhiniyam remained influential.

02:49But because Abida Sultan went to Pakistan and started living there.

02:52Technically, his interpretation is correct.

02:54If we look at the interpretation of Shatrughna Sampatti,

02:57that Adhiniyam has the right to ascend the throne.

02:59And the notification issued by the Indian Government in 1962,

03:02in that too, Adhiniyam has the right to ascend the throne.

03:05In both, Adhiniyam has the right to ascend the throne.

03:07So, in such a situation, the Indian Government has to decide

03:10whether to recognize the citizens of Pakistan or the citizens of India.

03:14Because the right to give the title is of the Indian Government.

03:18Who does it recognize? Bhopal's Nawab.

03:21He will have to decide what is right for both.

03:24Now, when the title is in danger, what will happen to the wealth?

03:28In Bhopal, it is believed that the wealth of the Nawab is of billions.

03:34No, just like the title of the Nawab is controversial,

03:37the wealth of the people is also controversial.

03:39Now, the people who are being influenced are in their place.

03:42In this, the state government will also be in trouble.

03:44Because the state government, after this merger,

03:47has acquired a lot of property of Bhopal Nawab.

03:50And has distributed its compensation.

03:52Apart from distributing compensation, people have

03:54settled in housing board colonies, media colonies,

03:56there are many such colonies where people live.

03:58This is there.

03:59But the biggest controversy will come now.

04:01The Privy purse that was distributed at that time,

04:04that was also given to Sajida Sultar and him.

04:06Now, that is not there.

04:08Will they take it or give it to whom?

04:10That is, it is believed that the previous actions of the Indian Government

04:12were all right.

04:14All these controversies will arise.

04:16And they have already happened.

04:18There are many legal controversies.
