I have not seen such statues in other cities. There was a new statue being built at Agara Junction (on outer ring road) and it was recently commissioned. It is a real big statue.<br /></div><br />The statue is built very nicely and is decorated colorfully. Standing on a high pedestal, the statue looks majestic and this site could soon become a tourist attraction. The interesting fact is that this is just besides a Mosque on one side and Temples on other side. A nice piece of communal harmony if I can call it that way.<br /><br /><iframe marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=agara+junction+bangalore&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;msa=0&amp;msid=113098840894192833186.0004497c5b4f3c0019c3f&amp;s=AARTsJqhKYDLb2T6_zcaLVYGmuWZIRqRXw&amp;ll=12.923905,77.650445&amp;spn=0.006274,0.006437&amp;z=16&amp;output=embed" scrolling="no" width="300" frameborder="0" height="300"></iframe><br /><small><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=agara+junction+bangalore&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;msa=0&amp;msid=113098840894192833186.0004497c5b4f3c0019c3f&amp;ll=12.923905,77.650445&amp;spn=0.006274,0.006437&amp;z=16&amp;source=embed" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); text-align: left;">View Larger Map</a></small>Ramakrishnannoreply@blogger.com0
