๐ Academic Field Visit | Kumbhalgarh Fort, Rajasthan ๐ฐ
As Faculty at Veer Narmad South Gujarat University (VNSGU), and under the guidance of Principal Prof. Rajesh Mehta sir,
I had the privilege of leading both Indian and International students of the Masters in Urban and Regional Planning programme on a study visit to Kumbhalgarh Fort and the community residing within the fort premises.
The purpose of this visit was to gain insights into heritage conservation, settlement patterns, and community life within historic fort complexes.
During the visit, we had the honor of interacting with IAS Sakshi Puri ji (Deputy District Collector/DM) and her team, Who shared valuable perspectives and detailed knowledge that enriched the academic experience of our students.
This interaction provided a deeper understanding of the administrative and cultural dimensions of heritage sites, complementing the field study.
