Purani Kachehri Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh

The building which would have been the old court, is located in Andar Shahar, Chanderi. It dates from 17th century CE. The structure was declared unfit for use by the Public Works Department several years ago. However, it needs to be re-examined and retrofitted for appropriate reuse. There is dearth of action on such valuable built heritage, which leaves them derelict and susceptible to further decay in the absence of any maintenance.
