Project Information

Protecting India’s built heritage is an urgent need given the pressure on monetizing land, and this policy was drafted to address that in the context of Rajasthan. It is a statutory framework moving towards a structured approach of undertaking Heritage Projects in the context of a Heritage Plan. Led by the Government of Rajasthan, the policy was prepared under a special committee called Jaipur Heritage Committee (JHERICO) to address three critical aspects of built heritage – Protection, Preservation, and Promotion.
