➔ The museum for culture, in the context of India,
there is a dearth of such spaces that have a
significant impact on society. As a result, there is a
gap in the promotion of its diverse cultural heritage,
which has been limited to textual documents and
photographs.
➔ Literature, dance, song, drama, arts, and other
forms of culture are on the verge of extinction or are
practiced on a small scale in a few parts.
