New Delhi:
The question we asked is What Should Be Done with the Rs 90,000 crore (and counting) treasure discovered at the Padmanabhaswamy temple in Kerala. Here's our Top 10 pick for surfer comments. Please note some comments have been shortened.
Comment by Kishore
They are the symbol of our heritage. We have to keep them in Museum. A share from Museum earnings and authority should be given to the Royal family.
Comment by Shivaram
It should be kept in a museum in the name of the Royal Family or Padmanbhaswamy which will increase tourism to that place and result in employment to people.
Comment by Maya
The treasure belongs to God and royal family, it would be a good idea to utilise the funds for the upliftment of poor people as the final goal of god and royal family would be the same.
Comment by DNM Ravikumar
Better place to keep it is (in the) swiss bank as we can see our govt could not bring it back. Then it might be safe.
Comment by Thomas John
The treasure belongs to people of Kerala and not to the Royal family or the temple. The govt should sell the gold and ornaments and use of the money for developing infrastructure, like safe drinking water, hospitals, schools, highways, bridges, metro rails, housing for poor etc. There is no use of keeping treasure in the temple. Please take a bold decision and show the world that the treasure is not GOD'S OWN TREASURE. THIS IS PEOPLE'S OWN TREASURE.

This treasure should remain with the Temple and belongs to Lord Padmanabha. Even though we can use these to help the people below poverty line, or clear of govt debts, our corrupt politicians will use it to their own benefits. Let this treasure be with the Lord, with top notch security to guard it.

It's better to take care of the people who are below the line of poverty with the wealth that has been explored, so as to make sure that their basic needs are taken care of.
Comment by PM Madhyastha
The trust knows it better how to use it for public good otherwise it could have been misused in all these years. The Government should not interfere or take control of this temple's wealth.
Comment by Ajayan
First of all hats off to the Travencore family to preserve this treasure without using it for their personal benefits. According to me, the treasure has archeological value and need to be placed in a museum.
Comment by Ranjit
It should be left as it is. (We) cannot trust the government/politicians.
