Core drilling of Konark temple wall begins ahead of sand removal
The Archaeological Survey of India has begun drilling a hole in the Jagamohan of Konark's Sun Temple to evacuate sand that was sealed by the British in 1903. This step aims to assess the extent of damage caused by damp interiors and rainwater seepage to the monument's khondalite stones.
