India has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Netherlands to enhance cooperation in maritime heritage for the National Maritime Heritage Complex at Lothal in Gujarat. The collaboration focuses on museum design, conservation of maritime artefacts, research initiatives, cultural exchange, and tourism development. As part of the agreement, the NMHC will work closely with the National Maritime Museum in Amsterdam, benefiting from the Netherlands’ extensive maritime expertise. This partnership supports India’s efforts to showcase its 4,500-year-old maritime legacy globally while strengthening bilateral cultural and strategic relations.
