The much-anticipated 125-foot-tall statue of Dr. BR Ambedkar will be ready in February of next year. On the occasion of Dr. BR Ambedkar’s birth anniversary, Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao will unveil the statue and inaugurate the memorial garden adjacent to it in April next year.
Ministers Vemula Prashanth Reddy and Koppula Eeshwar, who inspected the ongoing works on the Tank Bund statue on Monday, stated that the work is being done quickly and will be completed on time. They stated that the statue would be a landmark not only for Hyderabad but also for the entire state of Telangana.
The statue and the memorial are being constructed on approximately 11.5 acres at the Tank Bund. A structure designed to look like the Parliament building is being built at the bottom of the statue to house a photo gallery depicting the life and philosophy of Dr Ambedkar. It will also include a cinema theatre that will show movies and documentaries pertaining to the author of the Constitution of India.
“Chief Minister Chandrashekhar Rao has a lot of respect towards Ambedkar who was responsible for the provisions in Article 3 of the Constitution, made it possible for creation of Telangana State. As promised by him during the Dr Ambedkar birth anniversary in 2016, the statue and the memorial are being developed on a grand scale,” Koppula Eeshwar said.
