How about creating YouTube repository for user-generated video showcasing cultural diversity, and then making it easy to share those videos via whatsApp, Facebook, Twitter etc.

We can have healthy India as next thing. It is established fact that out medical field is decade's behind world standards. Also having public awareness about health goes a long way too. Example would be all know tobacco is causes cancer, but not everyone knows plastic is more harmful. A lot of hotels serve hot food in plastic sheeting which is very bad

I know that this Min of Culture platform is not for the Maruti Logo issue but still since we can really think of Maruti as an important heritage in the car industry in India we need to have the logo in all passenger vehicles which itself would be the media on which it is promoted. Hope this is passed on to the relevant and concerned people in the Industries ministry. thank you

Maruti Suzuki is our PSU...but currently all Maruti vehicles in India carry only the " S " symbol of suzuki. The 3 vehicles that I found them were the Maruti Omni, Maruti Gypsy and Maruti 800 but now Maruti 800 is out, Gypsy is just a govt vehicle and Omni just dragging on. The leading cars in the small, mid, salon and sedan class all have only the suzuki logo. Please install the Maruti logo for vehicles in India..when they are exported they can have the Suzuki logo. Maruti logo our Heritage

Hi I like to add few points with the suggestion of siva perumalla like...The reporters need to be authorized to follow up on the correction of the road facilities etc....if not happening there need to be a special board in central operating independent from the state Government which is empowered to push for the issue closure.. till that the status of the issue highlighted can be published in the newspapers as a tracker....

his is my view we have to link news in media with govt depts to bring more responsibility,accountability & should be operated with a online issue register,for eg-roads damaged in an area published in a news paper ,that local muncipality should take responsibility to solve that issue and issue sholud be recorded online along with respective dates and relevant data needed there.& an act should be passed for political partIes and their leaders to eradicate self advt in publc medIa owned by them.ty

It should be made mandatory for private TV channels to telecast serials that promote Indian Cultural values, for certain duration every day. While enforcing this policy ,the interests of the multi cultural nature of the Indian society should be kept in mind. The current trend of excessive exposure of Western Cultural on the TV needs to be reduced to some extent. The film industry has also to join in the effort.

Media and specifically media groups owned by private firms should start showing documentaries on India's Culture and heritage. e.g. ABP news's flagship program "Pradhanmantri" is a perfect example for the kind of show. There programs should be brodcasted at peak viewership hours so that the impact is profound amongst the viewers. Each media group can take up the region where primarily it has a strong backing. Like this all zones of India would be covered.

citizens should be imparted compulsory knowledge of cultural heritage and monuments of our country. When one starts feeling proud of these they'll start preserving them.
