Princess Zairin Mukarram Jah, daughter of late Mukkaram Jah Bahadur, will inaugurate an exhibition on “The Caliph’s Wonderful World” at the Salar Jung Museum on April 29.
The exhibition will showcase a rare document titled “Deed of the transfer of the Caliphate of Islam from the last Ottoman Caliph to the Asaf Jahi dynasty,” which demonstrates how Hyderabad’s last Nizam, Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur, was appointed interim Caliph by Abdulmejid II until Zairin’s father Mukkaram Jah came of age.
Finally, Princess Zairin will launch her patronage of female education and empowerment through her engagements with an exclusively girls’ school in the Old City.
The Princess is scheduled to visit the grave of Mukkaram Jah. She will also visit educational institutes, including Osmania University, Jamia Nizamia, and MANUU. She will also initiate certain women empowerment and educational programmes.
