Mumbai, June 3: Maharashtra Legislative Assembly Deputy Speaker Anna Bansode has directed concerned departments to prepare a detailed beautification plan for the statue of Dr B.R. Ambedkar at Mata Ramabai Ambedkar Nagar in Ghatkopar East and submit it within a week.

The directive was issued during a special meeting convened following a demand by the Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Statue Committee. Officials from the Municipal Corporation, MMRDA, MHADA and committee representatives attended the meeting.

Focus on infrastructure and civic amenities

Bansode said the Ambedkar statue holds significant social and historical importance and emphasised the need for planned development of the surrounding area.

The proposed beautification plan will include improvements to roads, footpaths, lighting, sanitation facilities, protective walls, green spaces and other civic amenities.

He also instructed authorities to immediately verify unauthorised constructions around the statue and take legal action against any violations.

Clearing encroachments, he said, would enhance the monument's visibility and provide residents with a cleaner and better-maintained environment.
