 India, a home to one of the most ancient civilizations of the world. India's millennia old artifacts are an invaluable part of its heritage. However, over the last few centuries, many of these Indian antiquities were taken out of the country illegally. The government of India has been putting in lots of efforts to bring these invaluable pieces of Indian heritage back home. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the last few years have seen tremendous success in returning of lost antiquities. With the relentless efforts of the government of India and the active support of agencies and departments of the United States, a total of 157 Indian artifacts have been identified and are set to return to India. The government of the United States of America officially handed over these 157 Indian artifacts to the government of India. Out of these 157 artifacts, about 45 antiquities belong to before common era period. The returning of such a large number of artifacts in a single lot provides a major boost to the government of India's campaign to bring the lost Indian antiquities back home. Lost in the pages of history until now, these antiquities will soon be brought where they belong. The return of these antiquities is the manifestation of the respect and the resolve to preserve the legacy of India's art, culture and heritage for future generations. The government and people of India extend their heartfelt gratitude to the government and people of the United States of America for their help in returning 157 lost pieces of invaluable Indian heritage to India.
