The Union Ministry of Culture could manage to provide action taken notes on “only 21 out of the total of 35 recommendations” made in a parliamentary panel report relating to untraceable monuments, according to an official statement.

The department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism and Culture in its report also expressed a “deep concern and disappointment at this apparent lack of seriousness,” on the part of the ministry in responding to the panel’s recommendations addressing critical issues.
