Heritage Conservation Lab to be Established in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar
Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar will soon house a state-of-the-art heritage conservation laboratory, thanks to a Memorandum of Understanding signed between the Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation (CSMC) and the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH).
- The lab, INTACH’s first in Maharashtra, will be located on the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Museum campus.
- It aims to address the lack of scientific conservation facilities in the Marathwada region, home to numerous historical artifacts.
- The facility will offer professional restoration and preservation services, even for private collections.
- Municipal Commissioner G Sreekanth emphasized its regional importance, stating it will serve the entire Marathwada.
