Bengaluru: The world's tallest statue of Hanuman is going to be built in Karnataka. It is going to cost 1200 crores rupees to build this 215 meter statue. The statue will be built at Pampapur in Kishkindha, Karnataka, which is also considered to be the birthplace of Lord Hanuman. Swami Govind Anand Saraswati, head of 'Hanumad Janmabhoomi Tirtha Kshetra Trust', has announced the installation of the statue.
Pampapur is located in Bellary district. Donations will also be taken from people to build this statue. The trust said that a rath yatra will also be organized to collect donations from people across the country. Along with this, the 'Hanumad Tirtha Kshetra Trust' has also decided to donate a grand chariot to Ayodhya's 'Ram Janmabhoomi Tirtha Kshetra Trust' in order to construct a Ram temple. This private trust of Hampi has decided that its construction will be completed in the next 6 years.
Along with this, the government of Uttar Pradesh has also decided to build a 221 meter statue of Lord Shri Ram in Ayodhya. Since the statue of Hanuman cannot be placed higher than the idol of his favorite Lord Shri Ram, therefore its height is set to be less than that, ie 215 meters. There will be a gap of 6 meters between the two giant statues.
