by the rather descriptive name, Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958. You can read this act here - http://www.asi.nic.in/asi_monuments.asp Some monuments are well preserved, and others are a blot on our conscience, and the 'activities' of the ASI. Not that this is the objective, and not that the objective of our participation in WLM is to create a tourist paradise, but I do hope that some of the photographic documentation achieved in this year's photothon will help create some public outcry against the widespread decay and neglect. We have, in general, far too many laws and far too little public concern about the manner of their implementation. > > > > My answer to you here is in a much broader context than the competition, in reference to which you ask this question. > > > > warm regards, > > > Pradeep Mohandas > > > > > From: tshrinivasan(a)gmail.com > > > > Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2012 23:25:55 +0530 > > > > To: wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > > > Subject: Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] what is a Monument? > > > > > > > On Mon, Aug 13, 2012 at 11:10 PM, Karthik Nadar < karthikndr(a)wikimedia.in&gt; wrote: > > > > > Just to confirm, heritage temple is part of monument. > > > > > > > > > Thanks. > > > > > > I hope churches, mosques also come under monument. > > > > please confirm. > > > > > > -- > > > > Regards, > > > > T.Shrinivasan > > > > > > > > My Life with GNU/Linux : http://goinggnu.wordpress.com > > > > Free/Open Source Jobs : http://fossjobs.in > > > > > > Get CollabNet Subversion Edge : http://www.collab.net/svnedge > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > > Wikimediaindia-l mailing list > > > > Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > > > To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > Wikimediaindia-l mailing list > > > Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > > To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l >
