To carry out this project, a society called the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Rashtriya Ekta trust was established under the chairmanship of Gujarat's chief minister.
The makers needed iron, which they obtained from farmers, to build the statue of unity. Farmers donated their used farming equipment, and by 2016, 135 matric terms of scrap iron had been collected to build the statue of unity, which had 109 turns and was used to make the statue's foundation.
The statue of unity stands 182 meters tall and is the world's tallest statue.
