01:17 now when will this start?

01:19 let's talk about this

01:22 we have with us the DG of Archeology and Museum

01:25 Dr. Abdul Samad

01:27 thank you so much Dr. Abdul Samad

01:29 the question is that

01:31 Faisal has also asked

01:33 we are so excited

01:35 that night tourism is going to start

01:37 Peshawar has its own culture

01:39 its own language, its own food

01:41 and tourism

01:43 so please tell us

01:45 this idea is very unique

01:47 and we would also like to reach other cities

01:49 so when is this going to start?

01:52 and how much security will people have to give?

01:55 so please tell us when is this going to start?

01:58 thank you so much for taking me on this topic

02:03 actually do you know Peshawar?

02:06 it's one of the oldest living cities of South Asia

02:09 it's a 2500 year old city

02:11 so Heritage by Night is starting a program

02:14 the program is starting from tomorrow

02:16 it's starting from 30th March

02:18 thanks to Pakistan Army

02:20 we are starting with the help of Pakistan Army

02:23 especially the Corps Commander Peshawar

02:25 he has a lot of personal interest

02:27 because of which we have a lot of

02:29 besides the Heritage by Night program

02:31 other sites like Jamroth Fort

02:33 for Sikhs

02:35 it's a very sacred place

02:37 we have started conservation work on that

02:39 where there is a Samadhi of Hari Singh Nalwa

02:42 there is a Shapola Super near the Pakistan border

02:44 on Khaybar Trail

02:46 we have started that with Pakistan Army

02:49 so Heritage by Night

02:51 is a World Bank program

02:53 in which we have illuminated

02:55 3-4 major archaeological sites of Peshawar

02:57 at night

02:59 you might have seen the photos on the screen

03:01 so for this we have also opened

03:03 the night for tourists

03:05 because people are busy during the day

03:07 so besides Heritage

03:09 the intangible heritage

03:11 we are trying to give that

03:13 to the people

03:15 so we have a program

03:17 in which music will be added after Ramzan

03:19 and the existing archaeological sites

03:21 museum will be visited

03:23 and the famous Peshawar dishes

03:25 Tikka will be included in this package

03:27 you mentioned the History Museum

03:29 Pakistan Army has also supported

03:31 and helped a lot on that

03:33 work has already started on that

03:35 from tomorrow

03:37 the Corps Commander is reviving the History Museum

03:39 and the Bazaar

03:41 so it will be a value added place for tourists

03:43 not only during the day but also at night

03:45 you can visit

03:47 absolutely

03:49 Dr. Sir, in the initial phase

03:51 you are starting from Peshawar

03:53 do you have any plans to expand it further

03:55 because Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is very beautiful

03:57 and

03:59 as you mentioned

04:01 Jamrud Fort

04:03 which is very sacred for our community

04:05 in our Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

04:07 the Buddha sites

04:09 are very beautiful

04:11 so in the future

04:13 do you have any similar plans

04:15 for the same like in Peshawar

04:17 absolutely

04:19 we have more than 20,000

04:21 archaeological sites only in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

04:23 in which

04:25 there are 2000 early Buddhist sites

04:27 in which Jamalgadi and Takhtbai

04:29 will be illuminated

04:31 from next month

04:33 the project has been approved

04:35 World Bank is sponsoring it

04:37 so

04:39 Takhtbai and Jamalgadi

04:41 which is a World Heritage Site

04:43 will be included in the next month

04:45 you mentioned Jamrud Fort

04:47 I think it is equally important

04:49 like we have Kartar Corridor

04:51 so Jamrud Fort is equally important for the Sikhs

04:53 but now

04:55 its conservation is going on

04:57 its conservation is completed

04:59 so it will be illuminated at night

05:01 and it will be opened to the tourists

05:03 at night and during the day

05:05 Thank you so much Dr. Abdus Salman
