Archaeological Survey Identifies Medieval Chamber at Golconda Fort, Not Tunnel
Authorities at Hyderabad's Golconda Fort have discovered a medieval-era rectangular chamber, not a tunnel, during work by the Army's Artillery Centre. The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) conducted a preliminary inspection, noting the chamber's granite construction and red potsherds. The exact purpose of the chamber remains unknown pending detailed investigation. The ASI plans to report findings to its Director General and may explore whether similar structures exist nearby within the fort's prohibited area.
