Digital Gallery on Mahabharata

The very land where Lord Krishna helped Arjuna fight the most decisive battle of his life is now all set to go digital. I came across the following:

"The Sri Krishna Museum at Kurukshetra will soon have a digital gallery with nuggets of information on the epic Mahabharata. The Centre has sanctioned Rs 2.96 crore for setting up the digital gallery in the town where the epic battle of Mahabharata is believed to have been fought. "A software is also being developed for the purpose," informed Haryana Chief Secretary Promma Issar.

She said the gallery would have all kinds of information about Mahabharata, and various performing and visual art forms related to it gathered from across the country
