The administration said that the process of removing encroachment around the temple will also be started soon. The ASI team can reach Sambhal on Friday for carbon dating of the temple and well of Khaggu Sarai. DM Dr. Rajendra Pansia had written a letter to ASI to investigate the antiquity of the temple and the well.
This temple was discovered during the removal of encroachment operation after the violence on 14 December. EO Municipality Manibhushan Tiwari said that the antiquity of the temple and the well could be around 200 years or more. Carbon dating is being done to confirm this.
Carbon dating will reveal the exact age of the temple and the well. With this, efforts for historical importance and conservation will be strengthened. The administration and archeology department are serious about this.
A closed well was also found in the premises of Radha Krishna temple.
On Tuesday, the lock of Radha Krishna temple located in Mohalla Kachhwayan of Sarayatrin was opened after 32 years. This temple was also locked after the riots in 1992. Now the puja has been started by opening the lock of the temple. A well has been found in the premises of this temple which is quite deep.
This well was closed. This well has been opened by the municipality. There is encroachment on half the area which will be removed. After breaking the slab of this well, it is quite deep. It also has plaster. The depth is estimated to be 40 feet. However, its depth has not been measured yet.
