Shimla, June 11:
A statue of the late Virbhadra Singh, former Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh and widely regarded as the architect of modern Himachal, will be unveiled on June 23 at the historic Daulat Singh Park on Shimla’s Ridge.

Highlighting his father’s legacy, Vikramaditya Singh noted that Virbhadra Singh played a pivotal role in transforming Himachal into a modern and progressive state. “He left his mark on every corner of the state. His vision continues to guide us,” he said.
He urged the people of Himachal to gather in Shimla on June 23 and be part of this significant occasion, paying tribute to a leader who shaped the state’s developmental journey. “This is not just a moment to remember him, but an opportunity to reaffirm our collective commitment to the progress of Himachal,” he added.
