Shri Sachin Kumar Vaishya, Chief Executive Officer, SMVDSB stated that the newly launched portal provides a collaborative platform for experts and institutions to share research-based inputs, thematic proposals, archival references and innovative concepts for the museum. He emphasized that the initiative aims to ensure authenticity, scholarly depth and contemporary presentation standards while preserving the sanctity and spiritual essence of the Holy Shrine.
