    1. Yeah me too thinks this.
      One beautiful building that I have seen Indians made recently is Akshardham
      Mandir.
      Can you name any architecture famous built by Indians after Mughals and Britishers, there are not many.
      I can't comprehend how Sachin can make these kinda architecture, he is not that rich to make them.

    3. Can you name any Indian personality or any other person equal to his status who has made any such monument.
      These things can be done by any organization or by Govt. Individual don't do these things.
