|January 06, 2025
TAMIL NADU Chief Minister MK Stalin on Sunday announced a prize of one million US dollars (₹8.57 crore) to any individual or any organisation which aids in deciphering the Indus Valley Script which remains a mystery even after a century since its discovery by Sir John Marshal, the then Director General of the Archaeological Survey Of India.
Stalin stated the measure will encourage the efforts of archaeologists, Tamil linguistic scholars and technological experts across the globe who are working to decipher the writing system of the Indus Valley Civilisation (IVC).
Stalin made the announcement after inaugurating a three-day international conference in Chennai commemorating the centenary of the discovery of IVC.
The CM also released a book titled 'Indus Signs and Graffiti Marks of Tamil Nadu: A Morphological Study', authored by Professor K Rajan, academic and research advisor to the state's department of archaeology, and Dr R Sivanantham, joint director of the department.
