​Mukhi Delu has been adopted as a Conservation Site School at Dharmaj as part of ‘Dharmaj Heritage Collaborative’, a joint effort by the Center for Heritage Conservation (CHC), CRDF and Avichal Heritage Foundation to safeguard the heritage of Dharmaj. The site is located within the historic core of the village and is owned by Harish Patel, a former resident of the village, now based in the USA. CHC, CRDF and Avichal Heritage Foundation have entered into a financially non-binding agreement with the house owner under which CHC will carry out educational and outreach activities at the site and conserve the building in the process. Once conserved, a new use for the site will be proposed in consultation with the owner, the community and administrative stakeholders of the village.
