Harappan-era city Dholavira inscribed on UNESCO world heritage list.

On Tuesday, Dholavira, a Harppan-era metropolis, in Gujarat has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the Organisation said. 

The ongoing 44th session of the world heritage committee of UNESCO has already given India a new world heritage site in the form of the Rudreswara/Ramappa Temple in Telangana, which dates back to the 13th century. 

The 44th session ombines current work, and issues left outstanding since last year, when the annual meeting was postponed due to COVID-19. 

“It gives immense pride to share with my fellow Indians that #Dholavira is now the 40th treasure in India to be given @UNESCO’s world heritage inscription. 

Another feature in India’s cap as we now enter the Super-10 club for World Heritage Site Inscription,” Culture Minister G Kishan Reddy said in a tweet.
