What are our duties towards preservation of any historical site?

उत्तर
Historical sites are symbols of the past and they represent the culture and tradition of a place. They let us take a peek into the way of life in earlier times, the significant events of an era and an understanding of history. The present generation is given the task of making sure that these evidences of cultural heritage are safely passed on to the next generations. Hence, we must protect the rich heritage. We must not let rapid urbanisation affect them and must also not litter or damage such sites. We must maintain them and take an active part in their preservation.
