@anuraag_saxena@IndiaPrideProj I still remember and will always remember the huge role played by IPP in bringing back Indian heritage, otherwise it was a non issue for decades, will always be indebted to every team member.
It will take immense effort.
Some will tell you it can't be done.
Others will steal credit for your work.
But in the end, when it happens...
...its beautiful.

OH PLEASE @britishmuseum get your house especially the Parthenon room in order! "The antiquated infrastructure...is crumbling. Roofs leak, the climate control is failing, paint is peeling, and floor tiles are cracked". Read all about it https://t.co/Hz6So7ONi5 @BCRPM
The Antiquities Coalition would like to congratulate @HSI_HQ and the Government of India, as well as the many individuals who made this possible over years of work including @IndiaPrideProj and @ChasingAphrodit.
Thanks @IndiaPrideProj and team, and full backing of @narendramodi ji - in bringing back our Gods. Till this govt came, our powers that be treated this loot as right of invaders to own our art, culture & history as prized booty
The statue of Varaha, Vishnu's avatar, was stolen from India in 1988 and was last seen in a private museum in Switzerland. Learn more about this artifact and the others on our Ten Most Wanted list: https://t.co/CTTrOcBDQY
Max Hollein, Director of the @metmuseum, announced that they will be working to repatriate items in their collection to countries that fell victim to cultural racketeering. Learn more about their efforts to #CombatLooting: https://t.co/qTzOPrkYe6
These figures came as a surprise to me. Is the extent of China's repatriation efforts widely known?
"China has successfully facilitated the return of over 150,000 looted cultural relics in more than 300 batches from 1949 to 2019."

It's a great pleasure meeting @vikramsampath at @nalanda_univ. Thank you Vikram for your kind words and signing the copies. We look forward to your talk today on "Reimagining Bharatiya Itihasa". We also recalled our friend @anuraag_saxena's immense role in @IndiaPrideProj
Having the common history in illegal removal of objects having heritage value and the common necessity to restitute them for securing those values, India and Greece looking to cooperate on the issue of cultural restitution.👇#culturalsecurity@IndiaPrideProj
