The project to move Tipu Sultan’s armoury has reached the final phase now. This is a spectacular engineering effort and is the first such in India. Jamin Buckingham, Project Manager from America, said he had never seen such a strong monument in his career. It is tougher than a stone structure, he said.
Looking at the mammoth armoury, Buckingham knew this would be nothing like the hundreds of buildings he had helped shift back home. This was the oldest he and his team had ever attempted to move and he knew he had absolutely no margin of error. The task could not be accomplished without weeks of intense planning and preparation.
