Prompted by a Seers dream the Archaeological Survey of India, ASI, has starred digging in a Temple in search of one thousand tonnes of Gold in Unnao,UP,India.
While it is surprising that the ASI, which even queries Ram Janma Bhoomi goes by the dream of a Seer,with the Government’s blessings, it is not surprising that the Government is quiet on bringing the Black Money in the Swiss Banks.
A spokesman of the Government said,
“”There is no harm if the country benefits from it,” Congress spokesperson Renuka Chowdhurytold reporters. ‘
True, there is harm to all the politicians if the Swiss Bank issue is followed up.

The Congress on Friday supported the Archaeological Survey of India’s (ASI) treasure hunt in an old fort in Uttar Pradesh‘s Unnao district, and said the move benefits the country, no harm going for it.
“There is no harm if the country benefits from it,” Congress spokesperson Renuka Chowdhurytold reporters.
She defended the ASI move to excavate for around 1,000 tonnes of gold, which a seer said he dreamt to have been buried near a temple at the old fort.
“The Geological Survey of India said there is some metal underneath the temple. What actually is there will be known only after digging,” said Chowdhary.
The old fort at Dondia Khera village belongs to Unnao’s mid-19th century ruler Raja Rao Ram Bux Singh. Unnao is 50 km from the state capital Lucknow.
Shobhan Sarkar, a famous seer of the region, wrote to the Prime Minister that the late king came in his dreams and asked him to get the treasure dug up and hand it over to the government of India to tide over the economic crisis.
Taking a dig at the Centre for its “gold hunt”, BJP‘s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi today urged the Government to bring back the black money allegedly stashed in Swiss banks.
“The government has started to dig for some 1,000 tonnes gold, after someone dreamt of it. You bring back the money that the looters have stashed in Swiss banks. That would be more than the value of 1,000 tonnes of gold,” Modi said while addressing BJP workers on his arrival here on a day’s visit to the city.
According to the baba, as many as 1000 tons of gold was buried by Raja Ram Baksh Singh, an erstwhile taluqdar of Avadh under his palace in Daundiya village. The raja was hanged by the British for participating in the first war of independence in 1857. His two daughters, who were his only successors, ended their lives by jumping into the Ganga river after which the palace remained abandoned before it eventually crumbled.
Even as there is no scientific evidence with the ASI to corroborate the baba’s claim, the village has been drawing people from far and wide. Locals have begun to nurture hopes that the gold haul would also accrue some bounty for the otherwise highly undeveloped area.
“We want the government to build a medical college, hospital and engineering college and perhaps even an aerodrome with all the money they would earn,” says Ajay Pal Singh, the localgram pradhan (village head).’
