Advertising targeted at children will bring negative effects on the young, do you agree or disagree?

In the highly modernized world of today,

information

about one’s culture and

history

can be available at the click of the mouse. Given the easy accessibility to online content, it is often argued that museums are no longer required to make people aware of their rich historical culture. I deny

this

aspect, because despite the

information

revolution museums still remain an integral part of the nation’s infrastructure for the reasons elucidated below.

To begin

with, museums provide a lifetime experience for people to enjoy and relish. The online photographs and content fail to generate that excitement among the readers who just passively grasp the

information

provided thereon. The visit to any cultural site gets imprinted in the minds of the visitors which tend to remain there throughout their lifetime.

Also

, the

information

available on the website is often not authentic,

thus

, making it a doubtful resource to rely upon.

On the other hand

, the museums are built after a thorough research conducted by the renowned researchers, historians and

government

agencies.

Moreover

, because museums have remained a source of ancient culture and

history

,

thus

provides valuable knowledge to the youngsters.

Although

it is always believed that books are the greatest source of

history

, but visiting

such

museums leaves real remarks on the visitors.

For example

, the weapons linked to the wars used during the king’s empire available in the museum can be investigated to know about their real design.

Lastly

, these works of art to help people improve their quality of life by providing them employment.

For instance

, Virasat-e-Khalsa a museum in India depicting rich Sikh

history

, provides employment to around 2000 residents living in the Anandpur City.

Furthermore

, the

government

earns a huge amount of its revenue from the fee

that is

collected from the visitors who pay a visit to the place. The income,

thus

generated, is used to finance other welfare activities, develop infrastructure and provide basic amenities. A report by Punjab

government

stated that “Sada Punjab” at Amritsar, enabled

during the
