UNION MINISTER for Information U Maung Maung Ohn visited the Sitagu International Buddhist Academy yesterday afternoon, where he inspected its facilities, and proceeded to Mingala Taungnyunt Township to observe the progress of the Sarso Beikman building.

During his visit to the academy, the Union minister paid homage to Sitagu Sayadaw Abhidhaja Maharatthaguru Abhidhaja Aggamaha Saddhammajotika Aggamaha Pandita Bhaddanta Nyanissara, Chancellor of Sitagu International Buddhist Academies and Shwegyin Sangharaja, and offered donations. He toured key facilities, including the Seminar Hall and the Eye Surgical Operation Theatre. He also consoled patients receiving treatment at the Sitagu Eye Hospital.

He inspected the construction site of the Sarso Beikman building on Bo Min Khaung Street. The project director from Myanmar Land & Development Ltd reported on the design, land excavation, and site preparation. The monument, supported by the Indian government, is being built as a symbol of India-Myanmar cultural and literary ties. The Union minister stressed the importance of ensuring high-quality construction following the Prime Minister’s guidance. He reviewed a 3D scale model of the building.

The Sarso Beikman building, part of a two-year project, is being constructed on a 2.18- acre plot in Mingala Taungnyunt Township. The three-storey reinforced concrete structure will measure 160 feet in length, 140 feet in width, and 57 feet and 8 inches in height.
