It is thus in order to make Sardar Patel a source of inspiration for every generation, that such a massive project is being undertaken.

The grand monument will be placed directly facing the Narmada Dam at a distance of 3.2 km at the Sadhu Bet. As the world's tallest statue positioned on one of the world's largest dam sites, this statue will be a wonderful sight, nestled at the foothills of the Satpura ranges and garlanded by a range of mountains. Standing tall amidst fresh waters and greenery the majesty of this grand monument will be enhanced by its picturesque surroundings.
