Political stability and safety are prerequisite for tourism in any place in the world.

It tries on to analyze the current hurdles that have emerged because of the war. It tries to evaluate the effectiveness of the measures taken by the government. It underscores the need of measures that are proactive. It sees the absence of increasing the awareness of the local community about the value of its heritage as a leading reason of looting and destruction.
