An historic milestone for our country will occur when India chairs the UNESCO World Heritage Committee and hosts its 46th session in New Delhi from July 21 to July 31, 2024. This decision was made public by India's Permanent Representative to UNESCO, Vishal V. Sharma. This decision is the result of a proposal from Indian authorities that was discussed with the Director-General of UNESCO. Every year, the World Heritage Committee—which is made up of delegates from 21 member states—gets together to honor the world's natural and cultural heritage. Their efforts have an impact on the esteemed UNESCO World Heritage Sites roster.
