MMRDA has shortlisted 10 consultants from the 13 who had responded to the global invitation for expression of interest (EOI) to build the B R Ambedkar memorial at Indu Mills.
“We will now send request for proposal documents to the shortlisted consultants and expect them to submit the concept design for the memorial for which the Centre has decided to hand over 4.84 hectares of Indu Mills land to the state,” said an MMRDA release.
The EOIs of the 13 consultants evaluated by a committee of expert architects appointed by MMRDA. The authority will reward the best design from among the submitted master plans Rs 1crore.
The MMRDA, which is the special planning authority for the memorial, will play a crucial role in preparing detailed estimates, selecting the appropriate consultant and the construction.
