New Delhi. Before independence, only the kings of all the princely states of the country were policy makers of the area. From social to economic fabric, they used to run from their hands. But many of these kings used to ‘spread’ hands at their door to borrow from a Seth from Delhi. His RC could be gauged from the fact that he was one of the major shareholders of Seth Delhi London Bank. Let us know which mansion it was, who were its owners and in what condition is this mansion today?
Most of the mansion people shifted abroad
Currently, Anil Kumar of the sixth generation of Chunnamal lives with his family in this mansion. This is taking care of it. Other people have gone out. Some of these abroad and some have settled in different cities of the country. Some live in other areas in Delhi itself. But the locks of family members are closed in all rooms.
This mansion is 161 years old
Anil Kumar says that when the construction of the mansion has started, it is not known but in 1964 it has been fully prepared. A room of the building has a play stone in Persian, in which the year 1864 of construction is written. This mansion is not formed simultaneously. As needed, the rooms were built. The map of this mansion is recorded in 1850 in old documents.
The business of Chunnamal was spread abroad
Chunamal was a banker (moneylender), as well as a business of clothes, which spread over the country as well as abroad. Being a moneylender, King Maharaja used to come to him to take borrowings.
Gold and silver purchase and selling vegetables
Women did not leave the house due to the curtain system. Gold and silver, diamond-jewelry, whoever had to buy and sell, only the servants used to bring it from the market. Just as they used to bring vegetables, in the same way only the servants used to buy gold and silver.
