The Maharashtra government wants to increase the height of the Shivaji memorial from 192 metres to 210 metres, Shivaji memorial committee chairperson Vinayak Mete said. "We want the tallest structure for Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj," Mete said. The decision was taken so the structure could be taller than a 208-metre Buddha statue being erected in China, according to reports.
