Statue of Amarajeevi Potti Sriramulu to be Unveiled in Amaravati Tomorrow

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu will visit Amaravati and Vijayawada on Monday to take part in important events. As part of the visit, he will unveil a massive 58-foot bronze statue of Amarajeevi Potti Sriramulu at Shakamuru Park in Amaravati at 11:15 AM. The statue has been installed to honor the sacrifice of Potti Sriramulu, who fought tirelessly for the creation of a separate state for Telugu people. The unveiling is being organized on the occasion of his 125th birth anniversary.

The memorial project is being developed on 6.80 acres with an estimated cost of ₹150 crore. The first phase has been completed in a record six months by the Potti Sriramulu Memorial Trust, using 26 tons of bronze and 42 tons of iron structure to build the statue. In the second phase, a museum, photo gallery, auditorium, and skill development center will be constructed. Later in the day, the Chief Minister will also attend the government’s Iftar dinner in Vijayawada, reflecting the spirit of harmony during the holy month of Ramzan.
