The statue will be installed in a 23-acre heritage park that will come up at the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru, he said. Swami Nirmalanadanatha of Adichuchanagiri Mutt had also accompanied the minister. Talking about the progress of the project, Sutar said, “Right now, we have finished the neck level of the statue, which is approximately about 80 feet high, using high-density thermocouple and CNC program.”After the thermocouple statue is ready, the design molds will be taken using clay and plaster of Paris, he said, adding that two different models, including sand casting, will be followed while making the statue.
