Meerut Ghantaghar – A Clocktower Over Forgotten Gates.
Meerut Ghantaghar – A Clocktower Over Forgotten Gates.
On World Heritage Day, StudioDharma brings you a glimpse of Meerut’s layered past. Built in 1913, the present Ghantaghar stands where the historic Kamboh Gate once rose — a gateway built by the Kamboh Nawabs. The British demolished this symbol of local legacy to welcome James Rae Pearson, replacing heritage with authority. Today, the clocktower marks time… while quietly holding a story of loss, transition, and resilience.
