“NDA is the most appropriate place for his memorial as it is the academy where military leadership is being trained,” Shah said, while unveiling Peshwa Bajirao’s equestrian statue at the NDA campus.

“Had the battle for independence started by Shivaji Maharaj and taken forward by the Peshwas for 100 years not been fought, India’s basic structure would have ceased to exist,” Shah said.
