Later following protests by TDP corporators statues of Mahatma Gandhi and B R Ambedkar were also close to the statue of YSR. But, the statues have not yet been unveiled due to one or other controversy.
Speaking to The Hans India GHMC Mayor B Rammohan said that the civic body had decided to either relocate or reduce the size of the basement to facilitate trouble-free passage of vehicles and their parking. He said that the statues would be relocated on the GHMC premises itself.
