Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray speaking at the annual Dussehra rally, an image etched in the minds of many, is likely to be recreated at the Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Chowk, in Colaba. The prolonged delay in the Thackeray memorial seeing the light of day has got Shiv Sena leaders determined to get a statue of the late leader installed somewhere in the city. A few days ago, a committee responsible for approving the installation of statues in the city, gave an in-principle nod for the project. However, permission from the Collector is still awaited.
