Neglect gnaws away at ancient sculptures
Ancient sculptures are lying in a neglected condition in both Medak and Sangareddy districts as if they are some unwanted objects with no value continues, with neither the district administrations, nor the Department of Archaeology taking steps to preserve them.
One can find several such age-old figurines scattered by roadside in Medak and Sangareddy districts, utterly neglected by the officials concerned
​Medak/Sangareddy: Ancient sculptures are lying in a neglected condition in both Medak and Sangareddy districts as if they are some unwanted objects with no value continues, with neither the district administrations, nor the Department of Archaeology taking steps to preserve them.
Ancient sculptures which look like a male and female tribal warriors holding weapons can be seen lying underneath a tree right in front of the Medak Tahsildar office (right beside the office of Information and Public Relations).
The stone sculptures are probably many centuries old and more needs to be studied about when they were carved and during whose rule.
On similar lines, construction of Social Welfare Gurukul School in Narayankhed town has unearthed age-old stone sculptures from a period unknown, recovered while removing an ancient open well in its premises. The stone sculpture and two pillars have now been thrown by the side of the road right in front of the MRO office in Narayankhed.
The pillars appear to have been from the period of Kakatiyas, looking at the designs and architecture. The sculpture was recovered from inside the now destroyed well.
Thousands of such ancient sculptures and scriptures are lying everywhere in Medak and Sangareddy districts and despite news reports pointing-out the issue, nothing is being done to preserve the great history of Telangana.
