A copy of the letter written on Wednesday read, “Today, India’s “Chandrayaan-3” made a successful landing on the moon. We all countrymen salute ISRO. In order to keep this great achievement in the memory forever, a square in Dhar city should be named Chandrayaan and a memorial symbol of “Chandrayaan-3” should also be established at the crossroads.”
“I hope that the Dhar Nagar Palika will set an example for the entire country by taking a very quick decision in this direction,” the letter added.
After that a meeting was organised by the Nagar Palika CMO for the same, in which a proposal was passed by the Council to name Bhoj Hospital square in the city as Chandrayaan.
Nagar Palika CMO, Nishikant Shukla said, “In order to make the success of Chandrayaan-3 memorable, Collector Priyanka Mishra wrote a letter and asked to name one of the squares in the city named after Chandrayaan. The crossroads in front of Bhoj Hospital located on Mandav Road in Dhar city has been renamed as Chandrayaan Square by the council.”
