00:00I welcome all of you and I would like to invite Aditya Thackeray to say a few words.
00:19Thank you. I welcome all of you here today.
00:24Many people have asked me whether this event will be completed or whether it is an incident.
00:29It is not an incident but we have completed an important part of it.
00:33Phase 1 of the national monument has been completed.
00:37I remember the land worship...
00:40I was the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh.
00:42Since then, I have had many meetings, review meetings and site visits.
00:47Uttar Pradesh or me, Desai sir himself comes to Malatya every week.
00:51The important thing is that the first thing you see in all the monuments is a dog.
01:00Keeping that thought aside,
01:03Vandana Hindra Samarath Balasaheb Thackeray, my grandfather,
01:06has done so much for Mumbai and Maharashtra.
01:11His legacy, his life's work and his contribution to the society and politics
01:21will now come in the next phase.
01:24The first part of the monument, the architecture part of the monument has been completed.
01:30Today, we are bringing it in front of the people through media.
01:39The content part, which will be displayed,
01:43will start its work in the next phase.
01:46As Desai sir has said,
01:48it will take 6 to 8 months to complete it.
01:52One important thing is that this place, this object is very important.
01:59We are looking at its location.
02:02It is on the seashore.
02:04But the importance of this Mahapur bungalow is so great
02:06that my grandfather, Vandana Hindra Samarath Balasaheb Thackeray,
02:11may be a member of the Mumbai Municipality or a resident of Mumbai,
02:15just like Mata Shri,
02:17many meetings, meetings, important decisions,
02:20or even before the Dussehra Sabha,
02:22he may have stopped here, he may have come to meet people,
02:24he may have come to meet people, he may have come here.
02:26The second important thing is that
02:28where this object is being commemorated,
02:31in front of it, we can see the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
02:34And the name of that Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Udayan,
02:38Shivaji Park, was inaugurated in 1927.
02:42In the same year, in 1927,
02:45Vandana Hindra Samarath Balasaheb Thackeray was born.
02:48This should be a coincidence that the leader and the leaders,
02:51where the meeting was held,
02:53gave a different direction to the country.
02:55That field was inaugurated in the same year.
02:59Similarly, if we look at the other side,
03:01we can see the ceiling on the banner.
03:04I think it was in 1999,
03:06when the Bhoomi Poojan took place.
03:08That vision too, at that time,
03:10Vandana Hindra Samarath Balasaheb Thackeray was there.
03:13Actually, it went up to Nariman Point.
03:15Then the government changed, many things happened.
03:17But if we look at both the sides,
03:19then probably, they have some connection.
03:21Now, it is all in Mumbai.
03:23But today, while this was happening,
03:25we had to focus on some important things.
03:28The first thing, as Desai Sahab said, is CRZ.
03:31The second thing is Heritage Vastu.
03:33The third thing, as Uddhav Sahab said,
03:35is not to break a single tree,
03:37or not to push it,
03:39you should work.
03:41That is what we have tried to read.
03:43The fourth thing, which we have seen repeatedly,
03:45Shraddha Tai, Snehal Tai, Raute Saheb,
03:48many great people who have lived here,
03:50Sunil ji is also here,
03:52many great people who have lived here,
03:54they know that in the monsoon,
03:55in the monsoon,
03:57in the rains,
03:59and in the floods,
04:01we had to build this bungalow.
04:03We had to provide protection for that.
04:05We had to see all these things,
04:07and build this monument.
04:09The most important thing is,
04:11when we were building this monument,
04:13we had to see it.
04:15It has to have an aesthetic sense.
04:17Because at home,
04:19I have seen it since childhood,
04:21with my parents,
04:22it needs to have a frame.
04:24It needs to have an artistic sense.
04:26How will an artist's monument be?
04:28That was important to see.
04:30And after coming here,
04:32it should feel that it is of national importance.
04:34So I think today we have completed the first stage.
04:36We are giving a little side visit to it.
04:38And for the next stage,
04:40we will need the support of so many people,
04:42the support of our journalist friends,
04:44and the memories of many people around the world.
04:46It will be of Mote Saheb,
04:48Balasaheb,
04:49and many more people.
04:51It will be of their contribution.
04:53It will be of the memories of my grandparents,
04:55the memories you have,
04:57the memories you have in your memory.
04:59It will be of their contribution.
