Strengthening this message, Jaishankar highlighted ongoing cultural cooperation by sharing images of before-and-after restoration work carried out by India at the Vat Phou World Heritage site in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic.
According to the visuals, the Archaeological Survey of India is undertaking efforts for “restoration and conservation of the Vat Phou World Heritage site in Lao PDR.”
These images underscore India’s continued cultural outreach and partnership with Laos, particularly in preserving shared heritage and historical legacy.
Further building on cooperation this year, the Indian government extended a grant of approximately USD 1 million to the Lao People’s Democratic Republic under the India-UN Development Partnership Fund.
The support, provided on February 28, reflects India’s sustained engagement in development, heritage conservation and capacity-building initiatives in Laos.
This grant will support the project titled “Strengthening Large-Scale Food Fortification: The Case of Investing in Rice Fortification.” (ANI)
