When
Maharaja Vijay Singhji expired in 1951, it was proposed
to have a monument in his memory at Rajpipla, befitting
to his status and personality. As he was fond of
horses and won many Trophies in Polo and Races in
India and abroad, so it was decided to collect a
fund and then his bronze statue on horse back was
made and installed at the entry point of Rajpipla
town in 1953. Everyday many people who wish something
take a vow and when it is fulfilled, then they break
a coconut and garland the Statue. |
