G-20 nations are expected to achieve a consensus on cultural issues like restitution of artefacts and sharing of ‘intangible heritage’ at the Culture Ministers’ Meeting scheduled on Saturday.
The ‘Varanasi Declaration on Culture’ which will be issued after the meeting of Culture Ministers of G-20 countries and nine guest nations is likely to be passed unanimously, Union Culture Secretary Govind Mohan said on Friday.
“The previous three meetings have been held at the official level. This is a ministerial-level meeting. The zero draft which we had begun had 60-70 areas of disagreements and in the final draft we have managed to iron out all of them,” Mr. Mohan told the media here.
