The enormous violin was placed in the middle of a busy intersection in Ayodhya, which was given the name Lata Mangeshkar Chowk in honour of the legendary singer.
In honour of the great vocalist Lata Mangeshkar and her 93rd birthday, Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, has constructed a 40-foot veena that weighs 14 tonnes.
Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of India, will officially open a new crossroads today called Lata Mangeshkar Chowk by playing the veena, the musical instrument connected with Saraswati, the Goddess of learning. It has been reported that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will participate in the inauguration ceremonies online. The gathering will feature religious and political dignitaries, and Union Tourism Minister G. Kishan Reddy will be present.
Remembering Lata Didi on her birth anniversary. There is so much that I recall…the innumerable interactions in which she would shower so much affection. I am glad that today, a Chowk in Ayodhya will be named after her. It is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest Indian icons.
