India’s Triumph in Reclaiming 297 Antiquities from the US

During Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to the United States, a landmark event took place that marked a significant victory in India’s ongoing efforts to reclaim its cultural treasures. In a ceremony of great cultural and diplomatic importance, 297 antiquities were officially handed over to India by U.S. authorities. For a long time, many countries, including India, have faced a big problem: people stealing and selling their old and valuable art and historical objects. This is called illicit trafficking of cultural property. It’s been especially hard on India, with many old and precious items taken out of the country illegally.
