World’s Tallest Lord Ram Statue Goa 77 Feet Unveiling
In a moment of profound spiritual and cultural significance, Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled the world’s tallest bronze statue of Lord Ram in Partagali, South Goa. The monumental installation, standing at an impressive 77-feet tall, was the highlight of the ongoing 550th-year celebrations (Sardha Panchashatamahotsava) of the historic Shree Samsthan Gokarn Partagali Jeevottam Mutt, cementing the coastal state’s growing identity as a major pilgrimage site.
The creation itself is a national artistic achievement. The colossal bronze structure was crafted by the renowned Padma Bhushan recipient, Ram V. Sutar, the same master sculptor responsible for the iconic Statue of Unity in Gujarat. Sutar’s involvement lends the Lord Ram idol exceptional artistic merit and national recognition, transforming the mutt’s grounds into a premier destination for both devotees and connoisseurs of art. The 77-foot Ram statue now stands as a towering testament to the enduring legacy of Maryada Purushottam, symbolizing the fusion of devotion, heritage, and architectural grandeur.
