Why government made such kind of art and culture building if nobody can see or take benefits from it. Most of the time it closes for the public. Government needs to open it as a visiting historical place, so that people can explore the art and cultural of india. This is also a historical place in Raipur. Sometimes here they conduct some seminars and competition for the school and college students.
