The ‘Toshkhana’ houses the royal gifts and antique items of the erstwhile Dogra Rulers of Jammu & Kashmir. In Jammu, the articles of the Toshkhana have been stored at Mubarak Mandi Heritage Complex, whereas, the articles in Srinagar have been kept in a locker at Saddar Treasury, Srinagar, according to the government.

The decision to transfer the administrative control of the Toshkhana to the Department of Culture was taken on August 13 by the Administrative Council headed by The Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha. According to the government, the decision will synchronize its functioning with the Department of Archives, Archaeology and Museums under the Department of Culture and citizens will be able to have better information about their heritage.
