We have repeatedly submitted a scheme for financial assistance to the Ministry of Culture at the center,, availing for some help for a long time for this project. We are still awaiting a positive response.

We are privileged to receive guidance from Shri Baba Saheb Purandare, an authority on the life and times of Shri Chhtrapati Shivaji Maharaj, for our museum project.
