What are the implications of shared ownership of protected monuments with the Waqf Board

1. Potential conflicts may arise between the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) and the Waqf Board over the management and preservation of protected monuments due to the shared ownership. 2. Disagreements may occur regarding maintenance responsibilities, restoration work, and access to the monuments, leading to delays in necessary upkeep. 3. ASI may struggle to implement conservation efforts effectively if there is a lack of cooperation or coordination with the Waqf Board. 4. The overlapping jurisdictions can result in bureaucratic hurdles, hindering the timely protection and conservation of these culturally significant sites. 5. These conflicts emphasize the need for clear guidelines and cooperative mechanisms to ensure the proper preservation and promotion of shared heritage.
