The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) is happy to announce that on the occasion of International Day for Monuments and Sites celebrated globally on 18th April, no fee shall be charged on visiting ASI monuments across India.
This initiative aims to encourage visitors to explore India’s rich cultural heritage. With 3,698 monuments and sites under its protection, ASI is offering this opportunity to reconnect with the country’s historical legacy and architectural marvels.
This year’s theme for International Day for Monuments and Sites is Heritage under threat from disaster and conflicts. where awareness is being spread on safeguarding the heritage sites from natural or manmade disasters, threats or conflicts.
By waiving off entry fee, ASI hope to promote greater public engagement around the importance of conservation and management of our built heritage and how can citizens play active role in keeping our heritage preserved.
After all, as per the Fundamental Duties laid down in our Constitution, it is our collective responsibility to protect these invaluable heritage sites and do our bit to protect them.
