Mysterious ‘monolith’, discovered around the world since November, emerges in Gujarat


A “monolith”, like those that have appeared and disappeared in different parts of the world since November, has now emerged in a garden in the city of Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

This is the first appearance of a monolith, a structure made of shiny steel sheets, in India.

The triangular, prism-shaped structure, about six feet high, became an instant hit with city dwellers after it was spotted in a garden on SG Highway Thursday morning.

The garden is jointly managed by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and a private company. Situated near Gurudwara in the Thaltej area, it was one of the attractions recently opened by Chief Minister Vijay Rupani.

“The monolith has been placed there by the company that takes care of the garden. The structure has been installed by the company for visitors. People can see their reflection on the shiny surfaces of the structure and also take selfies, ”said AMC Garden Department Director Jignesh Patel.

People began to flock to the garden to click in front of the structure.

The first three-sided steel monolith appeared and disappeared after a few days in a remote desert in Utah, USA. Later, similar structures were detected in about 30 countries.
