One Sadhu told me about this, so I decided to investigate personally. I found

that at the main hill connected with Krishna's pastimes called Charan Pahari, a

small one at that not worth mining, there was nothing going on. The sadhus who

live by Krishna's footprint also did not know a thing and did not seem to be

the least bit worried about mining.

 

On the other side of the valley about 2 miles away from Charan Pahari there was

definitely full scale mining going on, but not endangering Charan Pahari in the

least.

 

Then I went to Vyomasura Gupha. There about half a kilometer away from the

Gupha, I say several mining operations going on. This hill is quite long, and

all the mining operations were going on and headed away from the Gupha. I also

noted that someone has merccifully made some steps up to the cave saving us

from barefoot mountain climbing. I was also pleased to note that they have also

constructed a chattri (dome) over the places where Krishna's hand print, foot

print, and garland print are on top of the hill. I saw that that part of the

hill was not in any danger.

 

Thus I lost all interest in this little sadhu tell us the sky is falling. I

keep an eye out, but at this time none of Krishna's pastime places is in any

danger. They seem to have taken note of people's religious sentiments. You can

sign if you want, but I don't think you can stop progress unless it seriously

endangers these places.
