How does one make these virtual museums(for the time being I am assuming they are designed well, and have excellent content)become the gold standard for all to use? My suggestion is for the Department of Museums to sponsor a TV reality show that shows the excitement of a race by 4 teams of celebrities as they traverse across the hundreds of small and big museums in India to unravel some hidden treasure in one of the museums. Each episode will advertise the virtual museum for viewers to use.

It is urgent that we need to create an Archive of original Indian literature and sciences for public reference and also need a system to curb circulation of false information and spurious literatures.

The original sciences and literature related to Indian traditions are being undermined in an organised way through publishing and circulating of altered false twisted information. It is urgent that we need to create an Archive of original

Sir, give a unique ID number to each antiquities stored in all the museums and digitize them. Take their photograph and upload in a site like IGNCA. This will prevent our antiquities being stolen and also give an identity to all our antiquities and sculptures, so that our future generation can relish them and take pride in their past.

1. The virtual museum could add concept oriented topics such as ancient Architecture of India.The Indian ancient temples has very ancient stone Architecture of unique style.This also could become a part of the Virtual Museums, so that the architecture students across the world could be benefited. 2.Unique Private art galleries such as Kasthuri Sreenivasan Trust art gallery and textile museum in TN (http://kasthurisreenivasanartgallery.com/) also could be featured in these virtual museums...
