A Dutch colonial cemetery in India is “of national importance.”
Centrally protected. Maintained. Guarded.

A sub-shrine of the Ramappa temple complex—built by the same civilisation that mastered floating bricks and star-mapped geometry—has “no importance.”
Not protected. Left to decay.

This is not a funding problem.
This is a values problem.

You cannot chant “$10 trillion economy” while your heritage policy still bows to colonial memory and shrugs at indigenous genius.

GDP measures cash flow.
Civilisation is measured by what you choose to remember—and what you allow to rot.

Modernity without self-respect is just a rented costume. 🗿🔥
