Résumé en anglais
The fabric of Indian culture is woven from the tangible and intangible cultural and built heritage of the country. Over the centuries the sharing of common history, customs, beliefs etc, has been giving the people of India a feeling of akinness and a sense of common identity. Therefore, the heritage sites which dot the country are of immense importance to the people of India. In spite of this it is often seen that the cultural heritage sites are ignored and neglected. The general lack of interest in the maintenance of the cultural heritage sites of India makes them vulnerable to threats from factors like
population pressures, ill managed tourism, environmental degradation, vandalism, theft, religious terrorism etc. In this paper I propose to highlight the threat which is posed to the sites in Jammu region of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir by the recent phenomenon of terrorism fuelled by religious fundamentalism. I will also suggest measures which need to be taken or already have been taken to protect the sites from the depredations of such terrorists.
