Sambhal, a city in Uttar Pradesh, is on the brink of a significant transformation as local authorities embarked on a demolition drive this week aimed at enhancing the city's infrastructure and aesthetics. Central to the plan is the installation of statues of notable historical figures at critical intersections throughout the city.

Mani Bhushan Tiwari, Executive Officer of the Sambhal Municipal Council, explained to ANI that the campaign seeks to remove unauthorized encroachments to facilitate the installation of statues of significant personalities linked to the area. Statues of Maharana Pratap, Lord Parashuram, and Ahilyabai Holkar are slated for installation at Chandausi Chauraha, Shankar Chauraha, and Manokamna Tiraha Park, respectively.

Tiwari emphasized the administration's commitment to decongesting the city's roads by reclaiming public spaces overwhelmed by unlawful encroachments. He assured that all actions are in accordance with legal regulations and that the Public Works Department is involved in the meticulous process of road measurement and encroachment removal to prevent traffic mishaps and jams.
