This architectural marvel, situated on the main highway, gives an insight into the life and teachings of the ninth Guru of the Sikhs and the illumination has been described as "world class".
Modern Stage Service (MSS) - PR Lighting's Indian distributor - was brought in as a result of the company's long association with the show director, and Wadhwa specified 16 XR300 Beam and 12 PR-8802's. Mounted on both the ground and the structure itself, they are triggered into action daily after dark from an Avolites Titan Mobile in conjunction with a Dataton Watchout system.
The Monument remains one of Delhi's hidden treasures. The central pylon of the structure itself represents Guru Tegh Bahadur while the three semi-arches represent his three disciples. Ten monoliths surrounding it represent 10 Sikh Gurus and disseminate their teachings.
According to the MSS director everyone is delighted by the impact created by the new design.
