Plans for a war memorial for soldiers from the State who fought in wars and military operations in the post-Independence decades have taken a big step towards turning into reality.
The State government has cleared the design/layout created by the design wing of the Public Works Department for the memorial planned at Akkulam.
Paper work for the memorial was set in motion in the 1990s after the Central government asked States to construct the memorials. But the project was hit by long delays on account of land-related problems.
