Sir — This refers to the article, “India’s monumental discrimination” (July 20) by Navneet Anand. There is a third option too ie to not charge anything for entry to monuments, but to make donations voluntary. Many museums in the UK are ‘free’ but a gentle notice draws your attention towards making a contribution (ticket).
Starting on the principal that these are our heritage sites and maximum numbers should be able to visit them, I would argue that making a voluntary contribution will remove all arguments (may even reduce corruption).
