What an amazing temple. Here in Canada they preserve stones and normal concrete buildings as historic monuments. Some are even just 20 years old. Whereas in India we are neglecting jewels like these. So sad Indians don't care their treasure of history. You are doing a great job bringing those unfortunate temples into light. I hope some good person or atleast the people who know or live around may try to take care.

Love and respect for heritage and the work of our ancestors is somehow missing. Mine is a small attempt to bring these marvels to people who cannot visit these sites.

Many thanks for your dedication and efforts to find out such gems of temples and then visit them to share with others. Who is responsible for maintenance of all such temples? Village Panchayat or Block Administration or the Corporator? Is there no govt. appointed body to look after such temples? If the dates are correct, then these should be handed over to Archeological Survey of India (ASI) and maintenance should be their responsibility along with local gram panchayat. Did you try to find out who is actually responsible for maintaining these? Or its nobody's responsibilities? Seeing your videos, I am feeling like an idiot, that we always keep dreaming and planning of seeing foreign countries; but we don't even know that we have 1000 times much richer heritage with us and we are not bothered about it. Every year Eiffel towers earns around 800-1000 crores only from visitors entry fee. If we can spend even 10% of that money on our own temples, it will save our priceless heritage.
