When railway authorities acquired the cremation land in Palei village for construction of a railway line from Haridaspur to Paradip, they must have had little idea of what they would come across during their work. In process of digging the earth for construction of wall, they came across relics that supposedly date back to 8-12 century.Prominent amongst the relics recovered from the site are the images of Lord Ganesha and Buddha.
There are other relics too that have been dug out from the site, however, the bad news goes that some of these relics were stolen.
I think that whenever such relics are recovered, authorities should take proper measures to ensure their safety. Also it becomes the responsibility of the local people to protect these relics. Theft of relics doesn't really sounds good.
