  • Attraction of naagsankar is being detoriorated. The animals like python, snakes, dear and other animals which were found there are not available now. The hotel which is there has not been maintained properly. Right here government depertment & if any commitee have the strong role to play for the maintainace of the historical monuments of the temple.
