While reviewing the progress work at a meeting of the steering committee, Kaushal issued instructions to financial commissioner (forest) and secretary (PWD) to resolve all issues and provide necessary clearance regarding the memorial within a week.
The state-of-the-art memorial-cum-museum spread across seven-acre land is being set up on the Amritsar-Attari road. Kaushal said there was no dearth of funds for this project coming up at a cost of Rs 100 crore and that Rs 15 crore had already been released by the finance department.
