Every year since the column was erected, the state government and Indian Army pay floral tributes to the martyrs on January 26 and August 15. But the present-BJP led Tripura government has pulled down the column and shifted two tanks which were seized by the Indian Army during the war to a new place. The government has said it will soon begin construction of a modern sculpture where the column used to be.
