Subject : Need for ‘Preservation of Historical Monuments’
Sir,
Through the medium of this letter I would like to express my concern over the manner in which we are grossly neglecting our invaluable historical monuments.
These historical monuments which are a unique reflection of our rich cultural heritage should be valued as priceless treasure. But we are neglecting them and these ancient monuments are losing their shape. They are getting dilapidated, their walls are crumbling, the roofs are getting cracked and the bricks and stone pieces are losing plaster. These historical monuments are being callously disfigured by visitors. It is heart rending to see how unfeelingly people damage them whereas these monuments should be preserved as a legacy for the coming generations. It is high time we changed our callous attitude towards our ancient monuments and got together to safeguard and preserve them.
I hope through your esteemed newspaper I am able to make people aware of the need to value these priceless historical monuments.
Yours Sincerely
Rahul
