Highlighting the continued prevalence of people searching for buried gold in Devala and Nadugani near Gudalur, a group is believed to have vandalised a more than a century-old carving of Ganesha, which is believed to have been placed in the area by people who first prospected for gold there.
The incident occurred in the area a few days ago, and the police have registered a case. Local residents said that there had been myths surrounding the idol, located in Kil Nadugani, that it had been made and placed in the area by prospectors who arrived in the area looking for gold in the hillocks in the region. “There were also reports that gold excavated from the hills was buried underneath the statue,” said a local Adivasi resident from Pandalur.
