Punjalkatte: Due to torrential rainfall, the barrier wall of the historically famous Mahatobhara Sri Karinjeshwara Temple at Bantwal taluk collapsed.
The damage was noticed by the temple staff on the morning of Wednesday, October 14.
The courtyard adjoining the wall was used to feed monkeys after the performing of rites.
“The temple is located on a huge rock and has a history of almost four eras. The bottom of the collapsed area is stone and mound hence no damage was done to the temple,” the temple administrator Noonya Naik said.
He further stated that remedial action will be taken after a structural review by a specialist.
