Underwater explorations at Dwarka after 20 yrs

The Additional Director General-Archaeology (ADG-A) of the Survey Professor Alok Tripath is leading a team of five archaeologists who are working on the project. For the first time, the exploration team comprises women archaeologists.

The fresh attempt to study underwater archaeology in the state assumes significance as PM Narendra Modi had gone scuba diving off the Panchkui beach coast to perform prayers at ancient Dwarka city belonging to Lord Krishna, which is submerged in the waters, in February last year.
