Talking
about
the
recent
developments
in

Memorial,

"We
are
relieved
that
all
the
impediments
have
been
cleared
and
work
has
begun
on
the
Vishnuvardhan
memorial,
which
will
come
up
on

We
are
hopeful

Green
Signal
By
HC
Previously,
Mysuru
Court
had
issued
an
order
against
the
construction
of
the
memorial.
The
injunction
was
recently
lifted
by
the
Karnataka
High
Court,
which
had
earlier
also
issued
five
acres
of
land
to
the
Department
of
Information
and
Public
Relations
for
the
same
purpose.
Bharathi
was
particular
about
having
the
memorial
constructed
in
Vishnuvardhan's
birth
place,
Mysuru.
HDK
Is
In
Charge
Now
The
five
acres
of
land
which
was
previously
allocated
to
the
Department
of
Information
and
Public
Relations
has
been
now
given
to
Vishnu
Pratishthana
Trust,
headed
by
Chief
Minister
HD
Kumaraswamy.
While
Vishnu's
fans
wanted
his
memorial
in
Bengaluru,
the
family
had
a
different
opinion.
This
was
one
of
the
reasons
that
delayed
the
construction
for
nearly
a
decade.
