“We asked the metro authorities that if they can provide us a panel where we can put up some pictures of Dhauli Pyau, which is a part of our history and a memory for many residents, they accepted our proposal and by the end of November we will have a special panel at the metro station, where pictures will revive the memories of the residents,” said Atul Dev, convener, INTACH, Gurgaon chapter.

Special panels will also be put up at Huda City Metro Station, MG Road, Iffco Chowk and Sikanderpur.
