It is indeed a proud moment for all Indians that 30 Manuscripts of the Rig Veda have been recognized as World Heritage. It is the earliest available work written by the Aryans in the Harappan Civilization. It was written between 1800 and 1500 BC. The hymns in the Rig Veda show how the people in the Indus Valley Civilization led their lives, what they believed in and also how they praised their Gods.The Rig consists of 1028 hymns,10552 verses(39,831 Padas) and is the longest of the Vedas.
This, though late,is but just a recognition of the ancient and rich culture that is India.
