India wants Buddha begging bowl from Kabul; ASI experts to check authenticity, an India TV news report from 2016, covers Indian interest in a bowl held in Kabul and the Archaeological Survey of India's stated intent to assess its authenticity and its claimed link to the Buddha's own alms bowl. It is daily broadcast journalism, useful for recording the 2016 news event and the ASI's stated position at that time, not a scholarly determination of the bowl's actual origin. Cite it for the reported 2016 interest and stated plan to investigate; the bowl's own archaeological history needs the ASI's actual findings or a dedicated scholarly source.
