ASI to wait till curfew Endings to reopen monuments from Goa
Written by news2in

PANAJI: Although the central administration’s directives permit for monuments, below the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), to start from June 16 onwards, the Goa group of their ASI will continue to accompany curfew limitations till June 21.
The choice of whether to reopen the temples to people will be obtained just after curfew is increased after the country guidelines, officials explained.
“When the state government permits, only then could we start the monuments.
Because there are constraints in Goa until June 21, we’re likely to strictly obey the state government dictate,” Archaeological Survey of India (Goa Circle), superintending archaeologist, Amarnath Ramakrishna explained.
Further, he explained that the viability of monuments will be dependent on the state administration’s arrangement and guidelines to achieve that.
Close since April 15, the two-month closed of legacy spaces has contributed ASI considerable time to finish pre-monsoon maintenance functions.
“Regular functions were attended since these were allowed according to state government requests.
All repair functions were completed.
Only people were restricted from going into the premises before two months,” Ramakrishna said.
Although the centuries-old monuments were able to defy the fury of cyclonic storm Tauktaethe roofing tiles of fort Aguada had dropped off.
Ramakrishna explained this is a”minor damage” and all these tiles will be replaced shortly.
“Nowhere else would be the most monuments changed,” he added.
