A little more perspective
India’s Ministry of Culture lists the minaret at 72.5 meters. The complete tower, from its base to its uppermost masonry, is the subject of this record; the wider monument complex is excluded.
The fluted shaft and projecting balconies provide visual steps along a strongly tapered outline. Compare it with Elizabeth Tower to see how a narrow minaret and a square clock tower occupy the same vertical scale.
