ITANAGAR, Jun 10: Governor of Arunachal Pradesh Brig. (Dr.) BD Mishra (Retd.) reviewed the ongoing restoration project of Eastern Gate of Ita Fort. He held a meeting with archaeologists and officials of the Department of Research including Secretary Research Remo Kamki and Director Research Batem Pertin at Raj Bhavan, Itanagar today and emphasised that the rich history of the State, particularly Ita Fort in the capital city must be well presented, within the constraints of the State’s financial resources.
The Governor underscored that the treasured ‘Eastern Gate of Ita Fort’ monument must be preserved and made accessible to visitors of the state as also the country.
The Governor advised the Secretary Research and his team to prepare a Master Drawing for the project with detailed work flowchart and ensure good quality of work which must be of highest order and every paisa spent must be justified, he said.
Sharing his observation about the renowned valued archaeological monuments in the country and abroad, the Governor wanted implementation of workable ideas to make the historical Ita Fort easily reached, attractive and eye-catching. Ita Fort, from which the State Capital derives its name must become one of the tourist attractions in the Capital city, he said.
