Ramayan Museum

Created between the 17th and 19th centuries for the Rajput and Pahari courts of north India, a selection of 30 paintings depicting the Ramayana will go on a year-long exhibition at The Met America's prestigious museum.

Announcing that "Lord Ram is an integral part of Indian life," Union Minister Mahesh Sharma told NDTV today that a"Ramayana museum" being planned for the communally-sensitive town of Ayodhya "is not the political agenda" of the BJP ahead of elections in Uttar Pradesh.
