A committee formed in 2016 to “study evolution of Indian culture from 12,000 years ago” did not submit any report to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), the government body said in a Right to Information (RTI) reply recently.
Asked about the formation of the committee and its findings, the ASI said on October 11 in response to a RTI query by The Hindu: “Yes, a committee has been formed to study evolution of Indian culture from 12,000 years ago which was approved on 31.10.2016 for a period of one year. The committee had not submitted any report to the ASI.”
When asked about the committee in the Lok Sabha on September 14, 2020, the then Culture Minister Prahlad Singh Patel confirmed that an expert panel had been set up for the “holistic study of origin and evolution of Indian culture since 12,000 years ago”.
