Chandigarh: Ancient Archaeological Site, there is a mound, in the city of SIRSA Haryana, which is planted from the list of monuments protected by the Government Haryana in 2016, is actually a protected monument and archaeological site that has been included in the Tentative Indian list by the World Heritage Committee since 2015.
Means the mound continues to be a monument that is protected centrally under the AEGIS National Monument Authority and the Indian Archaeological Survey (ASI).
This site, spread in an area of ​​about 5 km, removed from the list of monuments protected by the Government Haryana in July 2016 based on its understanding that it is a “state-protected” site.
Examination of the National Monument Authority and ASI records have revealed that there are mounds including in the list of monuments and high-ranking sites in category II.
This list includes protected monuments and archaeological sites which are part of India’s tentative list for the World Heritage Committee.
Category i sites are protected monuments and archeological sites that read on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Even in the latest list of national monument authorities that are updated until 2019, there are dune falls in category II protected monuments and archeological sites.
There are only 40 sites protected from category II in Punjab and Haryana under the Chandigarh circle, ASI, and their categorization has been carried out by the National Monument Authority.
The Haryana government has issued a notification in July 2016 ‘de-protecting’ mounds where around 3,500 houses with more than 20,000 populations were built.
The decision to eliminate mounds based on the thought of the thought for De-Protect was taken by the Chief Secretary of the Chief of Minister Rajesh Khullar after the meeting chaired by the Minister of Manohar Minister Lal Khattar before the main Secretary (Archeology & Museum) and Haryana Advocate General.
The decision was taken by the CM office on July 5, 2016, based on the opinion given by the Advocate General.
Ag has argued that the mound is a site protected so that the government Haryana has the power to remove it from the list of monuments and sites that are protected by the country.
The source, however, was confirmed to the Toi that the decision was taken by CMO to avoid the trial of insulting court cases delayed before Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Interestingly, the CM office also ignores the suggestion that breast milk must be informed before making decisions that are so important.
Haryana’s main secretary (Archeology and Museum) Ashok Khemka has been on December 4, 2019, told the Khattar government that the decision taken by the CM office to live in a mound from the list of protected sites has been taken by the wrong assumption.
In detailed records sent to the Khattar government immediately after taking over as the department’s main secretary in December 2019, Khemka had written that in accordance with paragraph 2 notification on October 3.1932 October, the mound was protected directly through the central government funds and under the care of breast milk.
“Therefore, command cm dated July 5, 2016, De-to-tells the mound as a protected monument will not affect its status as a protected monument from the national interest.
CM orders are legal nullity as far as they want to continue to continue the site in the mound.
Instead, the CM command is an empty reversal of something that is Nullity Ab Initio under the 1964 Act Punjab, “Khemka wrote.
Sources, however, confirm that the file containing this note is still delayed in CMO.
