Jagannath Temple in Pabna
Thank you very much for drawing public attention to the 600-year old gem of a temple - Jagannath Temple in Pabna. I am deeply disappointed that such a national treasure is being wasted away - even under the present government. It would be very helpful, if the government also focused on such archaeological treasures of Bangladesh. It did not happen earlier due to lack of consciousness on the part of the governments.
I also drew your attention to the dilapidated condition of the 'samadhis' of the 'Gazipur' (Joydebpur) rajas. These 'samadhis' represent one of the finest stucco works in entire Bengal. Once lost, it will never come back. The government bears the solemn responsibility of protecting such heritage of the nation.
