Madhya Pradesh is preparing to resume archaeological exploration at Vaishya Tekri in Ujjain, where a massive Buddhist stupa dating to the Mauryan period has remained largely unexplored since excavation work was halted in 1939, as per a TOI report. The state government is working with the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to examine the site again.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav is pushing the project forward, while the state administration is coordinating with archaeological authorities on a possible fresh excavation.
