Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The demand to install a new statue of Devi Ahilyabai Holkar in the Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) campus has been raised by Ajay Chordia, former EC member of Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV), Bhopal.
He wrote a letter to the vice chancellor of DAVV. Ajay Chordia requested VC prof Rakesh Singhai in his letter to install a new statue of Devi Ahilyabai in the university campus by replacing the old one as the old statue did not resemble the aura of Devi Ahilyabai and it is small in size.
He wrote that earlier it was announced that the statue would be made of marble but it was being made of fiberglass or some artificial material. The old statue should be removed and a new statue should be installed in the campus in accordance with her great personality and divinity that the students visiting the campus are inspired to bow down after seeing the divinity of Devi Ahilyabai.
