H.M. Wajid Ali, King of Oudh was deposed in 1856, by the order of Lord Dalhousie and taken by Sir Outram to Fort William custody under Town Major O Cavanagh and later housed at Garden Reach in Calcutta for mal-administering the affairs of kingdom of Oudh by lavishly spending on luxuries. The King was nicknamed Shatranj Ke Khiladi or the Chess Player. 1977 film Shatranj Ke Ray based on Munshi Premchand’s short story of the same name was played by Amzad Khawn as King Wajid Ali and by Sir Richard Attenborough as General Sir Outram. His Majesty Wajid Ali died at Matiaboorj, Garden Reach, Calcutta on 21st September 1887, buried at Sibtainabad Imambara. Local people in Garden Reach say that he was poisoned by his chief vizier Moonsarimood Dowlah or Langra Moonshi. Langra Moonshee and his family vanished into thin air after the death of His Majesty. But, he did not really vanish. He was always in touch with Lieutenant Colonel W F Prideaux, Agent to the Governor General in Council.
