Historian Rajkumar Pokharel Highlights Challenges in Historical Preservation Due to Technology and AI

Kathmandu. Historian Rajkumar Pokharel has stated that the increasing use of technology and AI has created challenges in the preservation of history and the collection of historical materials. He said this while speaking at a meeting of the National Assembly's Public Policy and Delegated Legislation Committee on Monday.

He said that legal reforms are needed to reduce the impact of unverified historical materials disseminated through digital media. He also said that the practice of keeping historical documents held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Nepali Army, and the Nepal Police secret for a long time hinders the study of diplomatic and security history.
