For God's sake, stop digging up temple treasures

Around Rs 90,000 crore worth treasure has been found in the secret cellars of the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Trivandrum. The treasure from the cellars of the famous temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu has triggered a debate -- should the wealth be used for public purpose or should it be kept a secret?.
R Vaidyanathan
, a professor of finance at Indian Institute of Management-Bengaluru, believes that the time is just not right to reveal details of the temple's treasures. Professor Vaidyanathan talks to rediff.com'sVicky Nanjappa.
