Why have the courts ordered the government to clean the Taj Mahal?

India
What I mean by the headline is this – 70,000 visitors a day paying an entrance fee – Rs 50 for Indians and a staggering Rs 1100 for foreign tourists (around £10 – India has a way of getting back what we stole from them!)
Anyway, my point is this – with that much revenue coming in from visitors then surely that money can fund the restoration project.
The government does not need to step in from that perspective. The ASI just needs to create a department to handle the job, and use the funds from tourist revenue to pay for it. Job done. But then things in India are never that simple! 🙂
