As soon as the information about the amount of gold found in mines of Sonbhadra, Indian media and people of India got excited and started sharing it with different interesting captions. The posts are circulating with various captions associated with 3350 tonnes of gold found in mines in Uttar Pradesh’s Sonbhadra district. If at all it was real, it would be 5 times the country’s present gold reserve, which is currently approximately 618.16 tonnes. Unfortunately, it’s not true.

Sorry to disappoint but it’s not 3350 tonne but merely 160 kgs ??♀️ As per GSI the probable figure of gold which can be unearthed is estimated to be around 160 kgs and not 3350 tonnes as mentioned in media reports.
Do see the press release issued by them! pic.twitter.com/BYOYHr2YDo— Neelam Pandey (@NPDay) February 22, 2020
