A video of people vandalising the temple ruins of Hampi is going viral on social media.
The locals are now demanding strict action against the people in the video. They are also demanding higher security for the World Heritage Site.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Hampi was ranked second in the New York Times’ list of must-visit destinations in 2019.
At a time when we are trying to rebuild and preserve our cultural heritage, this act is really unacceptable.
It has angered people all over the social media.
Apparently, the authorities have assured to look into the matter and take action against those involved in such disrespectful acts.
