Organised by the Azad Hind Club, this year’s pandal promises to be a visual treat, combining cultural tradition with modern opulence.
The club has allocated a significant budget of ₹30 lakh for the entire Puja festivities, with ₹17 lakh dedicated solely to the construction of the pandal.
A club member shared with GPlus, “The pandal will be made entirely of acrylic glass, both inside and out. We chose the Grand Lisboa theme because it symbolizes one of the finest luxury hotels in the world.” Standing at an impressive 70 feet tall, the pandal is set to become a major attraction in the area, drawing visitors from all over to witness the grandeur of the Puja celebrations.
The Grand Lisboa is the tallest building in Macau city of China and is the most distinctive part of its skyline.
