The 'largest' statue of B R Ambedkar outside India is all set to be unveiled in Maryland on October 14, the organisers have said. The 19-foot statue, named 'Statue of Equality', has been made by renowned artist and sculptor Ram Sutar, who also built the statue of Sardar Patel installed in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

The statue of Ambedkar, the key architect of India's Constitution, is part of the Ambedkar International Center (AIC) being built on 13 acres of land in Accokeek city of Maryland. 'This is the largest statue of Babasaheb outside India and has been installed as a part of the Ambedkar Memorial being constructed at this center,' said the AIC.
