What we see today as the Jami Masjid in Kurnool quietly carries whispers of an older past. Beneath its arches and domes lie pillars with carvings, reused stone bases, and temple-style symmetry — traces that tell the story of a once-sacred Hindu shrine transformed over time into a mosque. Yet, the ASI remains silent, offering no on-site disclaimer or acknowledgment of these visible remnants of temple architecture. How long will these erased chapters of our heritage be left unspoken?

The Dargah of Shah Musa Qadiri in Hyderabad, Telangana was raised upon the remains of a Hindu temple that once stood here- represented in the intricate carvings, reused pillars, and foundational alignments. These remnants hint that the temple was likely dedicated to shiva, upon which this mosque stands today. As always, the ASI has shown no initiative to investigate or preserve the site’s deeper origins. Why does the ASI continue to look away?
