Road laid on historical sculpture at Davuluru
The officials of panchayat raj department laid BT Road negligently on a Bhairava sculpture belonging to the 12th century AD at Davuluru village in Kollipara mandal of Guntur district.
Vijayawada: The officials of panchayat raj department laid BT Road negligently on a Bhairava sculpture belonging to the 12th century AD at Davuluru village in Kollipara mandal of Guntur district.
Dr E Sivanagi Reddy, CEO, the Cultural Centre of Vijayawada and Amaravati, observed it on Thursday as part of the campaign ‘Preserve Heritage for Posterity’. Dr Reddy said that there are three inscriptions engraved on a slab set up in the local temple dated back to 1132 AD, 1141 AD and 1143 AD which registered the construction of the temple dedicated to Gokarneswara.
The CEO regretted on the role of the officials who did not take care of the historical sculpture while laying the road. He made an appeal to the Department of Archaeology and Museums to shift the sculpture to the temple and erect it on pedestal for proper display.
