[INDOLOGY] News regarding National Mission for Manuscripts

[Jonathan Silk]

I suspect I am not the only one who noticed this:

>>The special body will be vested with the right to take over a manuscript
from a private owner based on the uniqueness and the importance of the
content. The sum to be paid would be fixed by an expert committee, the
concept paper says. <<

If you want to be absolutely sure that people will not share their precious
manuscripts, then threaten to steal them from them.
