AJSU leader and vice chairman Ramgarh Municipal Corporation Manoj Mahto said that the statue was earlier installed at Patel chowk on the party's initiative and it had signed a tripartite pact when it was removed. "The government had promised to reinstall the statue but did not do it so far. We had plans to install the statue on government land near Patel Chowk but the Congress foiled it," he said.
