NEW DELHI: Union urban affairs minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Wednesday said the “good news” on the memorial of former PM Manmohan Singh will be out in the next one to two days. Sources said Singh’s family members were scheduled to visit the shortlisted sites at Rajghat complex on Wednesday, but there was no confirmation of whether they went there.
Responding to TOI on the earmarking of any site for the former PM’s memorial, Khattar, on the sidelines of a National Institute of Urban Affairs event, said, “You will soon come to know. There will be good news in the next one or two days.” He did not divulge any details.
Speculation over earmarking a space for Singh’s memorial increased after the govt identified a space for former President Pranab Mukherjee at the Rashtriya Smriti complex, a common area developed for the samadhis of presidents, ex-presidents, PMs and ex-PMs.
