He informed the media that these monuments and buildings are a part of people&#39;s lives and they do not really know about their significance. The book will attempt to act as a reference for anyone looking to know about these structures.</p>
<p>
The first book &ldquo;Glorious Heritage&rdquo; which was launched earlier has pictures and descriptions of 108 heritage sites and now its e-book version has been released on the SDMC official website for a wider reach and access to the public at large.</p>
