The Haryana Government has decided to set up an international-level museum at Panchkula and a state-level museum at Village Rakhigarhi in Hisar District at a cost of Rs. 30 crores and Rs. 5 crores respectively.
Haryana Archaeology Minister Ram Bilas Sharma said the work to set up the museum at Panchkula would commence within the next three to four months, while the work on museum at Rakhigarhi would be taken up within a month.
Rakhigarhi is the biggest Harappan Civilization site in the South-east Asia and it is expected that the museum would display various excavated items of that period.
