X Site Visit- Rakhigarhi The purpose of the visit was to assess existing chaupal and Havelis to be restored and to be made suitable for use as chaupal and rest houses. It was also to get the idea of approximately how much it would cost to restore and LJ reuse the structure. A Mr. Dinesh, Ex-surpanch of Rakhigarhi showed us Badi Chaupal, and four havelis which had the potential of getting converted into rest houses. Badi Chaupal is around 70-80 years old 'L' shaped structure. Half part of Chaupal has been redone in RCC as the existing roof was falling apart and was causing more damage to the structure. The floor has been redone in tiles and dado is done in tiles. The outer boundary and part of the front verandah seating has all been redone in stone. The other half part of the structure is in dilapidated condition. The first floor of this part is falling apart due to seepage. Staircase is rotten and walls crumbling. V" Even if the entire structure is not restored to its original state some part will 'r' I' «■ definitely will have to be redone for example removing the tiles and dado, the i«« first floor and the other part still needs a lot of repair work that includes opening up the entire first floor of the second part and Sredoing it in the ' —^ - * existing style and material. ft.

Mahatma Gandhi. 15^^ May. 2017 c5U_ev- ^ ^^ ) In our last meeting in Delhi to discuss the architectural plans for the Museum in Rakhigarhi, I had suggested that an existing 80 year old Chaupal building which, at present, is in a derelict condition might be restored after conservation and placed at the disposal of the Panchayat for their use. You had wanted me to send you a formal proposal. Accordingly, I had deputed our conservation architect to have a look at the building and to give me preliminary rough cost estimates. The indication given is that on visual examination, the total restoration cost would be in the vicinity of Rs,40 lakhs. A brief write-up by the architect is also attached (Annexure-I). In our meeting a suggestion had also been made that as the proposed museum will attract a large number of visitors, both from abroad and from within the country, it would be advisable to engage a professional museum consultant. Prof. A. G. K. Menon, who was also participating in the discussions, was asked to suggest some names. The names suggested by him are given in the attached statement (Annexure-ll). You may like to take further action. With regard to the Chaupal, perhaps you may consider including the rough cost estimates in your budget for approval. Vpc-X" Sincerely, S. K.

Cfi Hi: Site Visit- Rakhigarhi The purpose of the visit was to assess existing chaupal and Havelis to be restored and to be made suitable for use as chaupal and rest houses. It was also to get the Idea of approximately how much It would cost to restore and reuse the structure. Mr. Dlnesh, Ex-surpanch of Rakhigarhi showed us Badi Chaupal, and four havelis which had the potential of getting converted into rest houses. Badi Chaupal is around 70-80 years old 'L' shaped structure. Half part of Chaupal has been redone in RCC as the existing roof was falling apart and was causing more damage to the structure. The floor has been redone in tiles and dado is done in tiles. The outer boundary and part of the front verandah seating has all been redone in stone. The other half part of the structure is in dilapidated condition. The first floor of this part is falling apart due to seepage. Staircase is rotten and walls crumbling. A « Even if the entire structure is not restored to its original state some part will definitely will have to be redone for example removing the tiles and dado, the first floor and the other part still needs a lot of repair work that includes opening up the entire first floor of the second part and 3redolng it in the existing style and material. As per the visual survey rough estimates for restoring the chaupal and conserving for the use of the village would cost around forty lacs. %'\\ lAn'neG<.\A-ft-.11 I Museum Planners & Consultancy groups S.No. Name of Website Links Contact Info the Firms 1 John N/A 9810132143 Philipose 2 EDC httD://edccts.com/xDcm/ 0 80 28542070 Creative connect@edcindia,com Technology Solutions 3 Pavillions httD://w\A/w.Davilionsinteriors.com/ 91 120 513 400, 2581 217, 4513 and 425 Interiors [email protected] India pvt.

CFMS No- arch.museums1972 Amiti Singh Dear ma'am/ sir 1 am an architecture student of Sushant School of Art and Architecture. I am in my fifth year in which we submit a thesis proposal for a design intervention on a site. For the same, I chose to work on the site of Rakhlgarhi given its heritage value and the need for protection. The topic for my thesis is "Relocation housing and interpretive center for the village of Rakhlgarhi". I wanted to ask a few questions from the concerned authority worldng for the excavations happening in Rakhlgarhi as they would allow me to take my thesis further. 1. A proposal was given by ASl for the relocadon of the village to allow for a more comprehensive and fruitful excavation. I was hoping to get more information about this proposal from you as it would greatly help me to understand more about the site. I understand the proposal hasn't been taken up, but if it did, how would ASI go about implementing this relocation? 2. The mound RGR-5 hasn't.,been explored by the ASI given the settlement on the ground. Is there any speculation over what might be found in this mound and how valuable tlae excavation of this motuid can be? 1 would be extremely grateful if I could get your help with these two questions and they would help me form my thesis around Rakhlgarhi and the kinds of interventions it needs.

There are two questions asked by you related to your thesis work 'Relocation housing and Interpretive Center for the village of Rakhigarhi'. This is to inform you that first question is related to the proposal of Archaeological Survey of India which is a centrally protected site under their notification. As you know the proposal hasn't been taken yet therefore you should consult or request ASI for its infonnation and direction for your project work. Relocation proposal ^^^as formed by ASI hence holds the right to information by them. Other is about RGR-05 which is one of'the mounds among seven mounds of Rakhigarhi and under notification of ASI, Chandigarh Circle. There is nothing like speculation practiced in the archaeological research and its methodology. Therefore nothing can be resulted before excavations regarding the said mound. You are advised to write and consult ASI, Chandigarh Circle for any details regarding objectives of your thesis.

Deputy Director [for Director Archaeology and Museums, Haryana, Chandigarh, / D.O.No.CMH-2q£^, \v\\ ■/ MANOHAR LAL T:|U.^lJld I CHIEF MINISTER, HARYANA, CHANDIGARH. Dated Cl.].!>.lr})2222. Subject: - NOC for Site Museum and Interpretation Centre at Rakhigarhi (District Hisar) As you know, the ancient site of Rakhigarhi in Tehsil Narnaund, District Hisar is of international importance. It is the largest archeological site of Harappan Civilization. Rakhi Garhi flourished in the valley between the Sarswati and Dnshadvati. Excavations conducted at Rakhi Garhi indicate that the settlement witnessed all phases of the Harappan Civillzation-the Early Harappan (3200-2700 BC), the Mature Harappan (2700-1800 BC) and the late Harappan (1800-1700 BC). This positions Rakhi Garhi as a unique site which promises to reveal new civilization contours by pushing the hitherto Indus Valley Civilization by a thousand years or more. The site is protected vide a Centra Government Notification dated 28th September, 1996 under section 4 of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958. The State Government is constructing a Site Museum-cum-lnterpretation Centre on a land measuring 5 acres, the location of which falls under the regulated area of Centrally Protected Mound I. The rare antiquates and the priceless artifacts of the collection revealed from excavation and expioration in this area will be displayed in this Museum for further study and research of Harappan Civilization. It appears an NOC is required from the National Monument Authority (NMA). The area of the construction site is devoid of archaeological potential and will not adversely impact the near y protected archaeological mounds. Moreover a site museum is always located adjacent to the site I, therefore, request you to ask the National Monument Authority to accord its NOC at the earliest so that the State Government may complete the International standard Site Museum and Interpretation Centre at Rakhi Garhi. This would help procure our rich heritage and promote tourism.
