The statue was inaugurated in December when Messi completed his “Goat tour of India.” But the 21-meter-tall statue sways in the wind and is seen as a safety hazard.
Local workers have thrown ropes over the statue's shoulders to stabilize it, but the decision to remove the statue was made to prevent accidents.
Exactly when it will be removed is unclear due to difficulties in bringing the statue down.
What do you think?
