I want to buy a fort..
Saturday, May 20, 2006
Seems crazy? But its happening. Our grant history is being sold.
It started with Anjanwel fort (Gopalgad) and now, fort Underi is also sold for Rs. 2 crore. Don't believe me? Check out the news here. Though a later action was taken after protest, it still remains a big question how long government will keep neglecting the heritage.
Latest news about Ankaai fort being used for storing weapons by militants is a very prominent example of what can happen. And this is just a trailer. The situation may go worse. Now is the time that government should wake up and take some solid steps to preserve the proud witnesses of our grand history.
