Meanwhile, tourists feel otherwise about the simians at Taj Mahal and have said that the monkeys create problems for them as they snatch away their belongings."Monkeys have created a lot of ruckus here. They disturb the tourists a lot. The administration should act on this matter. There might be a problem when US President Trump comes here as monkeys do not know who is President or not," Tanveer, a tourist told ANI.

"I am from Delhi. There are many monkeys here and they snatch away belongings of tourists. When the president of the US comes here, there may be a problem due to the monkeys. The administration should do something about this," Shoaib, another tourist said.

The Taj Mahal will remain closed for the general public from 12 noon on February 24 during US President Donald Trump's visit next week. Trump will be on a two-day state visit to India from February 24 at the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
