Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin made a big announcement. He said that the Indus Valley script has remained an unsolved puzzle for more than a century. He announced a prize of 1 million US dollars to the person who deciphers it.

In fact, in the three-day symposium, renowned archaeologists, historians, and scholars from around the world discussed the importance of civilization and its relationship with Tamil Nadu. At the same time, during his speech at the event, CM Stalin said that about 60 percent of the symbols found on the pottery of the Indus Valley are similar to the symbols found on the artifacts found during excavations in Tamil Nadu.
