A Heritage lost once is lost forever


We are totally indifferent to richness and wonder of our heritage. We have lost respect for what all our ancestors had created. No one is even bothered to know , how many are already lost or damaged beyond repair. Every day a historic building is destroyed in the name of development , somewhere in the country. We simply allow these temples and ancient water bodies to decay and degenerate or to be damaged by flagrant vandalism.

If such apathy and destruction continues , our future generations would not be able to experience and appreciate the wonder and richness of our cultural heritage . We are trying to create awareness and voice our concern to fight for conservation of ancient and  priceless divine heritage.
