Two other items which went for more than Rs 1 crore were a replica of the Pashupatinath Mandir, which was gifted to Modi during his visit to Nepal, and a replica of the Statue of Liberty, which is a gift he received during his visit to the USA, Kumar said. Both the items received bids of Rs 1.11 crore each, he said. Surat-based diamond businessmen Lavji Badshah and his partner Jayanti Aklara made a joint bid of Rs 1,11,11,111 for the replica of the Statue of Liberty, he said.
A bid worth the same amount was made for the Pashupatinath temple replica by Surat-based businessman Govind Dholakia, who runs Ramkrishna Exports, Kumar said, adding that a metal statue of Sardar Patel received a bid for Rs 50 lakh.
