India is going to be a rich country as gold prices are rising high, at this instant gold treasure worth Rs 90000 crore was discovered in Padmanabha swamy temple in travancore, Kerala and Padmanabhaswamy(God) only knows how much more hidden treasures are in Our country
The temple has 6 Secret Cellars (Nilavara – a place to keep assets safe) from Cellar A to Cellar F. Opening of each of these cham bers is revealing a virtual treasure trove with precious diamonds, golden ornaments, emeralds, jewelleries, rare antique silver and

Gold idol of Mahavishnu worth rs 500 Cr.
The main treasure found was a one foot
height golden idol of Lord Mahavishnu and a 30 kg golden ‘anki’. This golden idol of Lord Vishnu is believed to be the replica of the ‘utsava vigraham' used in the temple.
The golden idol of Padmanabhaswamy studded with more than 1000 previous stones is valued to around Rs. 500 Crore. Another golden idol of Lord Sree Krishna was also found which weigh s around 5 kg. The Antique jars found ,look of supreme artisitic quality ,which were crafted with lots of devotion and dedication, hats off to Indian artists
Golden Coconut Shells
Another interesting finding was two coconut
shells made of pure gold. One of this golden
coconut shell was students with rare antique
stones including emeralds and rubie
But how the treasure in Padmanabhaswamy was discovered is a interesting question?
The cellars were searched after a local lawyer (T.P.Sundararajan, 70 yrs ) petitioned a court to order the government to take over the temple as it did not have adequate security to protect its wealth. The Supreme Court had then set up a committee of seven members to open the long-sealed Cellars and evaluate the treasure.
Former IPS officer T P Sundararajan, aged70, a Supreme Court lawyer who was instrumental
in bringing the fabulous riches of Sree
Padmanabhaswamy Temple under public
scrutiny, died here on Sunday due to ill health
Mr.Sundara rajan died peacefully as he was
fighting for a long time , to secure evaluate
enlighten the whole world regarding the treasure.

Our country was indeed a golden bird. I wish this treasure should be in safe hands...
yes our country is a golden bird,
whose feathers have been half removed by britishers, and the other half is also being removed by our politicians
I am quite concerned about the demand that is gaining support viz. nationalise this treasure. I think that should be the last thing to be done. Apart from the fact that politicians will squander away the money, it will be violation of fundamental rights.

Interesting & concerning post! Do not know what will happen to this teasure that had been safeguarded by the royal family for all these years... Really hope that they are in safe hands as Saru said.
yeah deepa,
its very much important to safe gaurd this treasure
as it is world popular now.
yes sir,
I am not mature enough to comment on to whom should the treasure belong.
But you have pointed it rightly, our politicians can do a magic and vanish the treasure within no time
