Thank you Charles for having left a legacy where it will be valued and preserved. It will be great if the RIBA makes this available on-line on their website so that students in India can access this treasure. While thinking this though, I feel a deep sadness within for this wealth to have left the Indian shores at all. Charles was right when he said the facilities for the preservation of his work are not available here. Even colleges of Architecture have no archival facilities of quality.
As much as I am pleased that the work of Charles Correa will be well preserved with the right institution and definitely be available for the world community. I am profoundly sad though that India with all it's resources could do nothing to preserve this wealth.
