One of my friends has his
brilliant write-up on Khajuraho published in an online foreign journal. In his
article he broached one very valid point for discussion with me sharing the
same view that many of us are so callous not to think twice before defacing
establishments of historical significance. In fact, it is really sad that our
government does not charge any fine as punishment or take any measure, for that
matter, to restrain unruly people from ruining or spoiling a monument or an
architectural marvel by using them as a medium of declaring love in writing on
the walls, or by treating them as spittoons or lavatory.
