'A team of the ASI has taken charge of the site. We will be providing all kind of support required,' a police officer told IANS.

According to ASI officials, over 100 skeletons have been recovered so far.

'It (the site) appears to be very old. It could well be of historical importance and we can comment only after carbon dating the skeletons and other recoveries,' an ASI official told IANS, speaking on condition of anonymity.
