💨 Abstract

Nearly nine months after a previous 35-foot statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj at Rajkot Fort in Maharashtra's Sindhudurg district collapsed, a new 91-foot statue was unveiled. The initial collapse sparked widespread outrage, leading to the arrest of the contractor Jaydeep Apte. The new statue, built by renowned sculptor Ram Sutar and his firm, is designed to last at least 100 years and includes a 29-foot sword.
