Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple is now one of the richest temples in the country.So security will be a risk,and those who administer the Temple n the jewels will b honored with some bad names
That is why BHARAT(INDIA) is Great. Recently in Puri, Odisha such treasure detected. In future many such reports about to come. Britishers have looted unexpectedly. Let us do something to uplift the poorest of this country. Jai Jagannath
dats really great of india....i suggest indian govt to utilise the things properly in a right way 2 the right people
let not our corrupt politicians even look at the booty otherwise they will devise ways to loot it.jaigarh fort jaipur is an example.
Wonderful treasure unearthed and should certainly be used for the puja of the main deity in the temple....It is god's treasure.Our duty is to only safeguard that and worship the lord with his own treasure....

Show all the treasure to all the people through Media or Provide a Museum to that old treasure.
