The Government has implemented a National Virtual Library of India (NVLI) through the Indian Culture Portal, www.indianculture.gov.in<\/a> in collaboration with IIT Bombay, Mumbai. The objective of NVLI is to provide a platform for the digital preservation of diverse cultural artefacts and to create awareness and a sense of collective ownership among citizens about their shared heritage.<\/p>\n

This project has progressed very well. The main output of this project is the Indian Culture Portal, www.indianculture.gov.in<\/a>.<\/p>\n
