Tripura’s Precious Archeological Materials Are Absorbed In Temples


Tripura’s precious archaeological materials are absorbed in Temples as currently there is no proper infrastructure to room in huge excavated materials that are dated within 300 to 400 years according to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).


The most recent case of abandoning valuable historical property is this year’s sandstone sculpted Sheetla Mata idol that is dated to be 300 years old. The reason behind for not procuring the state’s property by the ASI  as people’s sentiment’s was connected to it. The idol was believed to be the grace of the Goddess according to its local as it was unearthed from the premise of Rabindra Sangha committee where favorably Durga puja is conducted. So the committee’s priest and local public of Udaipur refrained from allotting the scared historical piece to the archaeological group who came for verification.  


Apart from the latest 2018 excavation case in an another incident many years back a precious slate stone was possessed by the committee of Jaganath Temple, Udaipur in Tripura which till date the government has failed to recover from them. In 1990 the ancient Suryadev idol which is a representation of Sun God was possessed by a committee of a temple when the government people did not claim for it after being excavated.


According to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) body they are planning to restore back all the historical items once the set up of museum infrastructure near Buddhist ruins is erected. If the government initiates excavation work in full swing along with the centre’s support then Tripura can revive back many historical memories sealed under the earth of Fulkumari, Udaipur, Gakulpur and Badarmokam areas of it.
