According to sources from Hyderabad already there is a 24 feet statue called 'Telangana Martyrs Memorial' at Gun Park but that belongs to the 1971 movement of the separate statehood. Now to honor the 2014 movement which has also seen many people turning martyrs by sacrificing their lives for achieving "Telangana", the State Government has come up with an idea to construct a new monument.
Sources have stated that on the banks of Hussain Sagar, in an area of 2.5 acres
adjacent to Lumbini Park, now a "Telangana Martyrs Memorial" is
coming up. Meanwhile to eternalize the sacrifices of hundreds of martyrs in
Telangana statehood movement, finally, Chief Minister KCR has approved the
design of the project. Moreover in what looks like a traditional Diya, a four
floor multi level hall is being constructed where there will be a museum,
conference hall, restaurants and other amenities.
Further on other side, there will be a permanent
fire lit up, a timeless lamp, we have to say and accordingly the idea of this
80 crore worth monument is to sanctify the sacrifices, this design of the
monument will make it another epic landmark in the Hyderabad skyline.
