Sir,
Sub: Poor condition of historical monuments.
I being a responsible citizen of free India, consider it my duty to attract public attention, through the esteemed columns of your prestigious newspaper, to the neglectful and miserable condition of historical monuments which are symbols of our past glory grandeur and are our national heritage.
Sir, if you personally visit some of the monuments like the Qutub minar,
You will observe that names have been scratched all over the monument and the place is littered.
All is due to the lack of proper maintenance. We must realise that even the present will be past one day.They are priceless records of our history, but have fallen victim to the criminal neglect by the officials. I had also brought it to the notice of Archeological Survey of India, Government of India, but there was no response. This callous indifference on the part of authorities concerned has compelled me to approach you through this letter.
I was shocked to see the deteriorating condition of our monuments. I request you to oblige me by publishing this letter in your paper, so that the authorities concerned are awakened in time, and the priceless historical monuments are saved and preserved.
Yours truly
