Six of the seven idols of Saptarishi fell and broke. Someone’s hand and someone’s head got fractured. Other idols have also been damaged. Some of the idols have been discolored and some have been damaged due to the winds. Meanwhile, the Congress lashed out at the Shivraj Singh Chouhan government, terming the matter as corruption. The complaints about the work done in Mahalok were also done in the Lokayukta. All this was going on that on Saturday the team of Lokayukta from Bhopal reached Mahakal Mahalok to investigate. In the presence of Smart City Director Neeraj Pandey, the team of Lokayukta got the Kailash mountain lifted by Ravana and the rear part of the idols of Markandeshwar Shiva cut and examined. Iron pipes were fitted inside the idols. Because of this they were not harmed from outside. After investigation, the cut off parts of both these idols were restored. Now the sages and saints of Ujjain are raising questions on this. They say that the fragmented idol is not kept. This is inauspicious. In such a situation, how can the broken statue be kept in Mahalok? Mahamandaleshwar Shaileshanand Maharaj of Juna Akhara said that any kind of picture and exhibition can be put up at the venue of the exhibition. But this does not happen at the place of worship. Millions of people have faith attached to Mahakal Lok. No fragmented idols should be installed at this place. Idol of Saptarishi CM has announced to change

Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has already said that the broken idols will not be installed in Mahakal Lok. Because of this, the idols of Saptarishi are being rebuilt. On Saturday, the Lokayukta team also saw with the help of inch-tape how many millimeters the layer is. In fact, some sculptors claimed that the thickness should be eight mm when the idols are placed at a height of ten meters. However, according to him, the thickness of the layer was kept only three mm in the idols installed in Mahakal Mahalok. Now the question is arising whether the idols which have been vandalized by the Lokayukta will be replaced or only the vandalized idols will be allowed to remain in Mahakal Mahalok.
