Indus Valley Civilization boasts of the flourishing urban centers; the Bronze Age site of Mohenjodaro, considered as a marvel of town planning, is situated on the banks of river Indus, in province of Sindh, in present day Pakistan. National Fund for Mohenjodaro, in collaboration with the Sindh Government is jointly organizing a Conference on Mohenjodaro, & Indus Valley Civilization in the month of February 2017, on the site of Mohenjodaro.
