There is no sign of construction worth five crores; those responsible say they don't know who built the memorial.

Nitesh Sharma. Friday is Gandhi Jayanti in Badwani, but the reality of Bapu's memorial built at the Kukra rehabilitation site in Badwani testifies to administrative apathy. The Narmada Valley Development Department (Bhopal) had issued orders on August 1, 2017, to re-establish the joint samadhi of Mahatma Gandhi, Kasturba Gandhi, and Mahadev Desai located at Rajghat in Kukra. The then Chief Minister had allocated a cost of over five crore rupees for this purpose.
