Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday hailed the declaration of Santiniketan in West Bengal and the 'Sacred Ensembles of the Hoysala' in Karnataka as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, saying these are living testaments to the eternity of India's culture.
In a post on X, Shah said while Santiniketan, the abode of Kaviguru Rabindranath Tagore's worldview, fosters the infinite evolution of human potential, the Hoysala temples are the manifestation of the pinnacle of the country's craftsmanship.
"It is a joyous occasion for our nation that two of our cultural legacies have been included in UNESCO's List of World Heritage Sites. Santiniketan in West Bengal and the Sacred Ensembles of the Hoysalas in Karnataka are living testaments to the eternity of our culture,” he said.
