Rare stone idol of Sun found during an excavation in Bihar’s Saharsa

A rare black stone Sun idol has been found during excavation on the premises of Baba Mateshwar Dham Temple at Katho panchayat in Saharsa district of Bihar. The three-feet-tall idol carries lotus flowers in both the hands.

“We were digging to lay the foundation for an extension of the temple on Sunday when we found the idol,” said one of the labourers.Temple Trust chairman Arun Kumar said, “The idol is unique…We have informed the district administration. We have placed the idol in the temple and have begun worshipping it.” Saharsa district magistrate Kaushal Kishor said, “We have directed the local administration to ensure the idol is kept safe. We are writing to the department concerned.”

Ripunjay K Thakur, a researcher in ancient history, Delhi University, whose research area is ancient temples, Gods and Goddesses, said, “The Sun idol belongs to the Pala dynasty [750 AD]…There would be many such antique statues in Kosi area.”

Purnea University professor-researcher of history Naresh Kumar Srivasatava said, “Fearing an Islamic invasion, people buried idols of their deity under the earth or immersed them in wells or ponds…that’s why they come up during excavation.” Meanwhile, people from distant villages have started gathering at the temple to offer prayers to the idol. Saharsa-based social activist Amit Anand said the idol should be taken for archaeological examination. He said three years ago, a rare black stone idol of Goddess Saraswati of pre-Pala era was recovered at Patuwaha village during a similar excavation.

Vivian reveals Chahat has unhygienic habits

In the new promo shared by the makers, Vivian was seen telling Alice about Chahat’s habits. Vivian said that Chaahat had used the washroom and was the last to leave. He said that the poop was lying around even on the floor and the toilet seat was not flushed. It was Karan Veer who cleaned the mess.

‘Mere upar jhootha ilzaam lagaana mat’

Alice then told Chahat about the washroom situation. Chahat denied the accusations and said that she only took the shower and left without using the toilet. Next, she was seen in the kitchen area, where she called out Vivian for making baseless accusations at her. She said, “Gandagi khud failao aur mera naam laga do! Itne guts ho na directly baat kiya karo. Log le jaake mat pucha karo. Mere upar jhootha ilzaam lagaana mat Vivian Dsena. Jhootha insaan (You do all this and blame it on me. If you have guts then tell me directly. Don’t ask people. Don’t make false accusations Vivian. Liar)!”

Fans commented on the post, and seemed to take the side of Vivian. “Chahat we know you are right and he’s unnecessarily targeting you since day 1,” said a fan. Another said, “Just to make Chahat look bad how can someone say these things, he’s been bullying her since day 1, Vivian is lying it is so clear and he wants to show Chahat as the negative one. I support chahat here.”
