Krishna River
Raichur: An ancient idol of Lord Vishnu has recently been found in the Krishna River in a village in Raichur district of Karnataka with all the ten avatars carved around it. Sources gave this information. He said that this idol is noteworthy considering the fact that the features of this idol are similar to the idol of ‘Ram Lalla’ recently consecrated in the newly constructed temple in Ayodhya.
Ancient Shivalinga was also found along with the idol.
At the same time, an ancient Shivalinga has also been found along with the idol. Dr. Padmaja Desai, lecturer in ancient history and archeology at Raichur University, said about the Vishnu idol that it might have adorned the sanctum sanctorum of a temple and was thrown into the river, possibly causing damage to the temple.
Archaeologists believe that this statue dates back to the 11th or 12th century AD. (input language)
