Mumbai: At Sinoli in Uttar Pradesh (U.P.), a place known for its association with the period of Mahabharat, <b>117 human skeletons belonging to the Bronze Age have been found during excavation. On further deep excavation, even gold was found. Therefore, if research is carried out, it is possible to unearth things that would take us to the Vaidik period. Also the view that Aryans did not belong here, they came from outside India, will be proved wrong. </b>The above thoughts were expressed by Kokab Hamid, the Minister of Tourism, U.P while addressing a press conference.
The Central Government has allocated funds of Rs. 800 Crores for undertaking historical research work at places like Hastinapur, Bagapat, Sinoli etc. which were known during Mahabharat period. From the viewpoint of increasing tourism activities in the State, Hamid has appealed to tourists and devotees to visit U.P. and attend programs like Taj Festival, Lucknow Festival, Gautam Buddhaâs Death Anniversary, Shahid Smarak (Martyrsâ Memorial) Festival, the forthcoming Kumbh Mela etc. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
