The story of this 369 feet high statue becoming the world's tallest shiva statue is also interesting. According to the report, when the plan to build this statue was prepared in the year 2012, it was planned to keep its height at 251 feet. But later during construction its height reached 351 feet. After this, a plan was made to put a stream of ganges in Shiva's hair, then its height reached 369 feet.
Elevators, stairs, halls etc. have also been made in this statue. 3000 tonnes of steel and iron, 2.5 lakh cubic tonnes of concrete and sand have been used during construction. Even winds blowing at a speed of 250 km will not affect the statue. Statue of Belief' was visualized by Mr. madan Paliwal, Chairman, Miraj Group, Udaipur. The concept was further developed by Studio Maturam Art which designed the 351 feet high statue, while the structural design was provided by Skeleton Consultants and the work began in early 2016.
