Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will unveil the world’s tallest statue next month in western state of Gujarat, officials said.

The statue has been constructed to honour the country’s first Home Minister Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.


“The Statue of Unity will be inaugurated by Modi on Oct. 31,” Gujarat’s Chief Minister Vijay Rupani told reporters on Sunday on the sidelines of the two-day Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national executive meeting in New Delhi.

The Statue of Unity, which is 182 meters from the ground and 240 meters from the river base of Narmada, has been completed, officials said.

Patel, a leader of Indian National Congress party, was deputy to India’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru after India became independent in 1947. He was also the first home minister of India.

The inauguration of the statue will be done on Patel’s 143rd birth anniversary, officials said.

THE ONLY THING NIGERIAN GIRLS NEED IS A DEEK IS BIG AS DIS

It'll will definitely become a world class tourist center, something that'll generate money to the nation unlike what that Okorocha did that is now in crumbles & more like a relaxation spot for goats and touts.

Happy Birthday

Since our #5 is useless, we need this type of statue to immortalize Our first and only prime minister Tafawa Balewa. He was a great man before the enemies of peace from other side of the country murdered him and other great men

No body... I mean not a single person, dead or living deserves a post-mortem statue in Nigeria.

Everybody, dead or living na criminal for Nigeria!

Tallest bridge, tallest statue, tallest this tallest that, yet your citizens are short....... China wake up..... Nice advancing country tho
