Current affairs
Discussion on newly found Vishnu statue held
By Robab Rosan

They assumed that the statue would be an iconograph of Early Pala Dynasty, which dates back to approximately ninth century AD. They further said that as the statue embodied many local features, an extensive research was needed to define the exact date of the statue. The statue proves that the small kingdoms of the region were culturally rich during that period.

The discussants also laid importance on the materials of the piece. They informed the audience that any authentic research was yet to be held to test the material of the statue. It was possibly moulded with black basalt or clay stone, they added.
