Prajal,
While this might sound a bit trite to you................. i would
suspect that the temple committee that obtained permission to raze
this monument in the process of bulding a new one ....( possibly to
accomodate a greater number of devotees) could be persuaded to
incorporate into the facade and interior of the new structure
significant statuary and artifacts from the old temple in cause of
history and heritage preservation ??
Many new buildings in the west hold on to age-old artifacts and add
them into the design of the newer and more modern structures.

Dear Prajal,
It is indeed a pity that permission was given by the Goa State Archaeology
for such a sacrilege to the state's heritage. I hereby join you all in the
protest against it. Residing far away in Europe, I am afraid this is all I
can do.
Jorge

dear friends
currently the protected state archaeology listed heritage monument namely
the
historic mallikarjun temple at sristhal -canacona is being demolished by
the temple committee in the name of replicating it by a new one.
the goa state archaeology has given the permission. this is a blatant
violation of the state archaeology act of 1978. heritage churches,
heritage
chapels, forts, heritage built ,natural and cultural is under grave
threat.
heritage is the positive legacy left by history we need to save
please raise your voice against the destruction of goa's priceless
heritage
we need your support and solidarity
