Nationalmuseum Neu-Delhi

Das Nationalmuseum Neu-Delhi (englisch National Museum, New Delhi) ist ein indisches Museum in Delhi, das an der Kreuzung Janpath/Maulana Azad Road in Neu-Delhi angesiedelt ist. Noch vor den Museen in Kolkata und Chennai ist es das größte und bedeutendste des ganzen Landes. Geschichte Die Anfänge des Nationalmuseums gehen auf eine Londoner Ausstellung der britischen Royal Academy of Arts aus dem Winter 1947/1948 über indische Kunst zurück. Nach der Ausstellung beschlossen die Kuratoren, die gleiche Ausstellung vollständig in Indien zu zeigen. Diese erfolgte 1949 im Rashtrapati Bhavan und sollte danach aufgrund ihres Erfolges als Dauerausstellung fortgeführt werden. Das Nationalmuseum Neu-Delhi wurde am 15. August 1949 in Anwesenheit von C. Rajagopalachari ausgerufen. Ein Eckstein des Museumsneubaus wurde vom ersten indischen Ministerpräsidenten Jawaharlal Nehru am 12. Mai 1955 gesetzt. Am 18. Dezember 1960 wurde das Museum eröffnet. Es wird vom indischen Kulturministerium verwaltet. Im Museum ist seit 1983 das National Museum Institute of History of Arts, Conservation and Museology angesiedelt, das seit 1989 den Status Deemed University und damit Zugang zu staatlichen Fördergeldern hat. Sammlungen Das Museum beherbergt eine große Anzahl von Exponaten der prähistorischen Zeit, über die Indus-Kultur, die Gandhara-Kunst, die Gupta-Zeit und das indische Mittelalter bis zu modernen Werken des 21. Jahrhunderts. Die meisten Ausstellungsstücke gehören zur hinduistischen, buddhistischen und jainistischen Kunst. Aber auch künstlerische Hinterlassenschaften aus den Stammesregionen Indiens und der islamischen Zeit werden gezeigt. Über 200.000 Einzelstücke sowohl indischer als auch internationaler Herkunft werden im Museum gelagert oder gezeigt. Galerie Weblinks Offizielle Website des Nationalmuseums Einzelnachweise

Национальный музей Индии

Национальный музей в Нью-Дели — крупнейший музей в Индии, содержащий коллекцию разнообразных археологических находок, исторических артефактов и предметов искусства. Музей управляется Министерством культуры Индии, частью Правительства Индии. Он находится на пересечении улиц Джанпат и Маулала. История Истоки Национального музея начинаются с выставки индийского искусства и артефактов в Королевской Академии в Лондоне зимой 1947-48 гг. По окончании выставки, её кураторы решили продемонстрировать такую же коллекцию в Индии до возвращения экспонатов в музеи. Индийская выставка была показана в Раштрапати Бхаван в 1949 году и была настолько успешна, что было принято решение создать постоянный национальный музей. 15 августа 1949 года Национальный музей официально открыл генерал-губернатор Индии Чакраварти Раджагопалачари. В то время было решено, что пока музей не обзаведётся своим зданием, экспонаты будут храниться в Раштрапати Бхаван. Современное здание музея заложил 12 мая 1955 года Джавахарлал Неру. Музей официально открылся для посетителей 18 декабря 1960 года. В настоящее время музей находится в ведении и финансируется Министерством культуры, Министерством развития людских ресурсов.

Bir Aishvan Wildlife Sanctuary

Bir Aishwan Wildlife Sanctuary—also locally known as Sohian Bir—is a wildlife sanctuary located approximately 3 km from Sangrur city in Sangrur district, in the Indian state of Punjab. It was declared as a sanctuary on 28 February 1952. It covers an area of 264.40 hectares (≈ 2.64 km²). Wildlife and habitat The sanctuary supports species such as blue bull (nilgai), jackal, hare, jungle cat, rhesus macaque, spotted owlet, and black and grey partridge. Conservation & management In a 2018 report, it was revealed that over 4,000 native trees were cut in Bir Aishwan Wildlife Sanctuary under a forest restoration plan, despite official guidelines restricting removal to invasive species only. In September 2022, a team led by officials from the Wildlife Institute of India and Punjab Forest Department conducted a habitat survey at Bir Aishwan to assess its suitability for blackbuck relocation from Abohar Wildlife Sanctuary, where that species has been under threat from feral dogs and habitat loss. The survey found that semi-arid plains, sand dunes, intermittent fallow land, and sparse vegetation make it potentially suitable for blackbuck habitation. Following reports of a leopard sighting near the sanctuary in September 2023, the Sangrur administration established a rapid response team to respond to such wildlife incidents in the area. In April 2025, the Punjab Cabinet declared the Bir Aishwan Wildlife Sanctuary — along with 12 other sanctuaries in the state as Eco-Sensitive Zone (ESZ), prohibiting any construction activity within 100 metres of its boundary. Threats The sanctuary—and other "bir" forests—are at risk each year from stubble burning in nearby agricultural lands. Punjab Forest Department maintains patrol units and enforces no-burn buffer zones up to 100 m inside sanctuary boundaries, following central government SOPs.

Chandratal Wildlife Sanctuary

Chandratal Wildlife Sanctuary is a wildlife sanctuary in Lahaul and Spiti district in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. It was first notified on 14 May 2007 and received final notification in June 2013 under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972.

Conservation and management The sanctuary is managed by the Himachal Pradesh Forest Department. The official management plan of the sanctuary covers zoning, grazing control, eco-tourism regulation and ecological monitoring. In June 2025, a seasonal police check post was established at Chandratal to enhance tourist safety, emergency response and real‑time weather/route updates—reflecting the region's growing focus on responsible tourism management. The Forest Department also has imposed daily entry and activity fees (e.g.: ₹150 per Indian tourist, ₹500 per foreign national) to manage growing visitor numbers and protect ecological integrity. Threats Tourism-related pressures include littering, vegetation trampling and non‑compliance with e‑pass and safety protocols—local authorities have issued repeated warnings against swimming in the icy lake and disregarding registration requirements. Unseasonal snowfall in July 2023 left over 250 tourists stranded at Chandratal for several days, prompting large-scale rescue operations involving helicopters and road clearance teams—highlighting vulnerability to weather extremes and the importance of preparedness.
