Read the following passage
carefully and answer questions 46 to 51 :
Heritage
conservation practices improved worldwide after the International Centre for
the Study
of the
Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM) was established with
UNESCO’s assistance in 1959. The inter-governmental organisation with 126
member states has
done a
commendable job by training more than 4,000 professionals, providing practice
standards, and sharing technical expertise. In this golden jubilee year, as we
acknowledge its key role in global conservation, an assessment of international
practices would be meaningful to the Indian conservation movement. Consistent
investment, rigorous attention, and dedicated research and dissemination are
some of the positive lessons to imbibe. Countries such as Italy have demonstrated that prioritising heritage with
significant budget provision pays. On the other hand,
India, which is
no less endowed in terms of cultural capital, has a long way to go. Surveys indicate
that in addition to the 6,600 protected monuments, there are over 60,000
equally valuable heritage structures that await attention. Besides the small
group in the service of Archaeological Survey of India, there are only about
150 trained conservation professionals. In order to overcome this severe shortage
the emphasis has been on setting up dedicated labs and training institutions.
It would make much better sense for conservation to be made part of mainstream research
and engineering institutes, as has been done in Europe.Increasing funding and
building institutions are the relatively easy part. The real challenge is to redefine
international approaches to address local contexts. Conservation cannot limit
itself to enhancing the art-historical value of the heritage structures, which
international charters perhaps overemphasise. The effort has to be broad-based
: It must also serve as a means to improving the
quality of life
in the area where the heritage structures are located. The first task therefore
is to
integrate
conservation efforts with sound development plans that take care of people
living in the
heritage
vicinity. Unlike in western countries, many traditional building crafts survive
in India, and conservation practices offer an avenue to support them. This has
been acknowledged by the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage
charter for conservation but is yet to receive substantial state support. More
strength for heritage conservation can be mobilised by aligning it with the
green building movement. Heritage structures are essentially eco-friendly and
conservation could become a vital part of the sustainable building practices
campaign in future.
