"There is a strange air hanging over parts of the country ever since the vaults in the Padmanabhaswamy Temple were opened to reveal their hidden treasures.
A 14-year-old was murdered in Adilabad in Andhra Pradesh in January in a human sacrifice for treasure in a fort. In many parts of Andhra Pradesh, people are now digging under monuments looking for their own Padmanabha swamy pots of gold, thereby endangering those structures. The Hindu : Opinion / Op-Ed : When an earthmover comes to school. Now near a school ground in Hyderabad, in a bizarre series of events, the State Department of Archaeology, basing itself on some bizarre information, has embarked on an incompetent, arbitrary and perhaps illegal pursuit of its own pot of gold."
How does the Department of Archaeology go by the supposed statement of one construction worker? Why did the Department of Archaeology never contact any teacher or parent, or the school management? Was permission sought from central government before entry? If not, is the State department not engaging in an illegal operation?
