The 125-foot tall statue of Dr. B R Ambedkar at NTR Garden near Necklace road in Greater Hyderabad planned by KCR government is likely to get bids from the National and International Companies for making and installation. The government has planned to erect it on April 14th when the nation will observe the 125th birth anniversary of the architect of India's constitution.
But then it may not meet the deadline. The entire project consisting of the bronze statue and development of Smriti Vanam is likely to cost anywhere between 150 and 300 crores depending upon the requirements to be given by the Telangana government to the manufacturer.
125 feet Ambedkar Statue and Square will come up in the land adjoining NTR gardens. There is a total of 39 acres land there and NTR gardens are currently on 4 acres. The government will use the remaining 35 acres for AmbedkarStatue and Square.
