English: Collotype Embossed, divided back 13.95 x 9.15 cm. British cemeteries in South Asia are among the quietest and saddest of places, especially when one walks through them and notes how many people died young, and how many of these were infants. Many cemeteries have fallen into disrepair; interestingly, after Independence the British government did not continue to care for the dead it left behind, this responsibility having fallen to the privately-funded British Association for Cemeteries in South Asia, or BACSA. The organization not only raises funds to restore and protect cemeteries, it also publishes books and scholarship, organizes lectures and produces an excellent journal, aptly named Chowkidar or "Watchman."
