This news item appeared in the December 6 2006 publication of the New York Times! I say how clever of Rediff to give 1/10 of the report and the info contained, in this ridiculously short half page. Smart way to educate and keep Indians informed. Shabash! We see 10 pages on Bollywood weddings and get half a page on on of the most significant monuments to education the world has ever known. We are the last to know about our own country. Everywhere else even Thailand, Malaysia, all buildings and such are given first class treatment by top professionals, in India as Ms.Nadia has written we have PWD doing the job, whitewashing buildings and providing the correct base for pan spit and dirt. Arrey, when will we learn to appreciate our own art, architectural treasures?
