		An appeal has been made to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) by the Dravida Peravai in Pondicherry to acquire the Arikamedu site and fence it so that the historically and archaeologically important finds here could be displayed for the benefit of scholars, tourists and researchers.
		Inspite of such early discovery, the usual neglect that goes with the erstwhile rulers towards Dravidian culture and civilisation is responsible for the failure of the Archaeological Survey of India to acquire the site, to fence it and to continue the excavation deeper.
		Archaeological evidences both ceramic as well as numismatic, seem to indicate that this port must have been founded sometimes in the first century A.D. Several of the excavated spots of this port attested to the importance of its trade with the Tamil speaking people.

	Concerns over tilting Taj Mahal dismissed - 05 November 2004 - New Scientist
		Fears that the Taj Mahal’s minarets are tilting dangerously and its base sinking on one side have been dismissed by the Archaeological Survey of India, which says it has not detected any structural damage at the base for the past six decades.
		But the four Taj minarets were observed to be inclined at various angles by the Archaeological Survey of India’s (ASI’s) first scientific survey in 1941, which examined the position and verticality of the minarets as well as the foundations' stability.
		The most recent survey on the Taj was done by ASI and Survey of India in 2000-2001 and found no structural changes.
