gulf-times wrote:An inventory of priceless treasures unearthed from subterranean structures of the Sree Padmanabhaswamy temple in Kerala resumed yesterday after a day’s halt keeping the lone woman inspector out.

The temple administration had on Thursday stopped the team of experts entering Vault A, the contents of which were being evaluated in detail since July 5. The temple authorities, claiming no woman was permitted to enter the temple vaults, objected to the presence of the woman representative of the Archeological Survey of India.
