Essay writing on statue of unity

Answer 1

Built near the Narmada Dam in Gujarat, the Sardar Patel statue is double the height of the Statue of Liberty in New York.

The 182-metre giant structure is made up of 25,000 tonnes of iron and 90,000 tonnes of cement and is visible from a 7-km radius.

There are 2 high-speed passenger elevators in the statue’s core which takes the visitors up to the chest of the statue to a viewing gallery. 

The viewing gallery can accommodate 200 people at a time and offer an expansive view of the Sardar Sarovar Dam.

 The statue is designed to withstand winds of almost 180km/hour and earthquakes measuring 6.5 on the Richter Scale.

Adjacent to the statue, the govt has built the Sreshtha Bharat Bhavan which is a 128-key, 3-star hotel facility with food service, guest amenities and conference facilities.

As Gujarat chief minister, Modi had announced the project in 2010 ahead of civic elections in Ahmedabad. The project, which cost Rs 3,050 crore, was fully funded by the Gujarat government.

The world's tallest memorial the statue of unity will be one and a half times taller than the Sardar Sarovar dam and as tall as a 60 storeyed building.
