The world's tallest Lord Murugan statue was unveiled at Puthiragoundampalayam in the Salem district of Tamil Nadu. The statue has a height of 146-ft.
Constructed by a trust at Puthiragoundanpalayam, the statue stands taller than the Pathumalai Murugan statue in Malaysia that has a height of 140 feet.
Meanwhile, the Lord Murugan statue in Malaysia is located at Batu Caves and is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India. It is the tallest Hindu statue in Malaysia and took three years to be built by sculptors. It required 350 tons of steel bars, 300 litres of gold paint and 1,550 cubic metres to construct the marvellous structure. Moreover, 15 sculptors were brought from India to carve the statue.
