Treasure trove

Sir,
This has reference to the news item ‘Dogra rulers’ remains under lock and key” DE Nov 27.
The Government should without further delay take some steps towards saving this treasure trove from decay. Unless this treasure which is a testimony to Dogra rule, is maintained properly, it will with the passage of time get wasted. Rather this wealth should be showcased to enable people particularly, Jammuites to go through the valuable items which were  once a pride possession of the rulers. This wealth, if it is showcased properly will fetch a handsome revenue from visitors. The money so generated will be utilised for maintenance of these items. It will also help  the present and coming generation to go through the pages of history. Otherwise the treasure will remain shrouded in mystery and covered with dust.
Mere keeping it under lock and key will not ensure its safety, rather it is to be maintained on regular basis.
Yours etc…..
