The main brain behind the wall and its design is of Subodh Kerkar, founder of the Museum of Goa.
The wall is a part of the Hilldaari project which is the movement that works to make Mussoorie one of the cleanest Hill stations in India.
Arvind Shukla, project manager of Hilldaari group said, "In order to construct the wall, around 50 volunteers from school and colleges came forward. Locals of the village also took part in the initiative. They all worked effortlessly to make this project a success."
