Accurately put, Pradeep. I would like to add that chances are there is no authoritative and complete list of monuments outside the Archaeological Survey of India which has its HQ in New Delhi. We may need to co-opt them to get details of what they list as monuments and heritage buildings throughout

hi, Re: WLM-In The status of the archives has not been discussed yet. In fact, we're yet to move on this at all. So, not much has happened in terms of discussion on this list. As of now, I see no point in keeping the archives private. In the future, it might be depending on how comfortable people
