Statue Of Unity Bus Tour / Shreshtha Bharat Bhavan To Statue Of Unity / Kevadia Gujarat India

With the opening of the Statue of Unity, dedicated to the ‘Iron Man of India’, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India just made its entry into the club of the tallest statues in the world.

Dedicated to one of India’s founding fathers, and the country’s first Deputy Prime Minister, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the Statue of Unity, stands tall atop Sadhu Bet island on the Narmada facing the Sardar Sarovar Dam downstream in Kevadiya colony, about a 100 kilometres southeast of Vadodara.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled what is billed to be the world’s tallest statue at 182 metres, leaving China’s Spring Temple Buddha at 153 metre, a long way behind. The project was handed over to Larsen & Tubro at a whopping 2,989 crore, who commenced construction on 31 October 2014. The idea was to inaugurate the Sardar Patel statue on his 143rd birth anniversary, on 31 October 2018. And as promised, the project was wrapped up in a period of 42 months with no escalation on fuel, labour and material. However, the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel statue was first announced at a press conference by Narendra Modi on 7 October 2010 to commemorate his 10th year running as Gujarat’s chief minister.


Design and Construction

The massive bronze Vallabhbhai statue produced at a foundry in China was designed by Indian sculptor, Ram Vanji Suthar, a Padma Bhushan and Padma Shri awardee for his contribution in the field of arts. In his 40 years of work life, he has created over 50 monumental sculptures. Speaking of the Patel statue, his son, Anil Suthar, also a sculptor, has described the pose - head up, a shawl clinging from the shoulder, and hands set on his side as if he is set to walk - portrays the true character of the person, his striving persona, and the unmistakable, iron will. After four years of work, the specifications of the structure stand at; height from the base is 240 metres, height of the base 58 metres, height of statue 182 metres.
