A strong demand has emerged in Dehri-on-Sone, Rohtas district, to rename the historic Anicut Park after the renowned philanthropist Bhama Shah and install his statue. This demand has been raised by descendants of Bhama Shah and local social activists. They argue that Bhama Shah's donation of his wealth enabled Maharana Pratap to continue his fight against the Mughals, thereby protecting the nation's freedom and dignity.

The Anicut Park in Dehri, situated on the banks of the Sone River, is a significant public space. Installing Bhama Shah's statue and naming the park after him would inspire new generations with his sacrifice and dedication. This initiative would not only honor Bhama Shah's contributions but also highlight the region's historical and cultural importance.

Those advocating for this change include Bhama Shah's descendants and prominent local community members. They emphasized that Bhama Shah handed over his entire fortune to Maharana Pratap, which allowed the Mewar army to reorganize and continue the struggle for independence. They believe his unparalleled sacrifice deserves national recognition.

Local administration and the government have been urged to seriously consider this demand. If approved, this park in Dehri-on-Sone would become a source of inspiration, commemorating the invaluable contributions of great personalities like Bhama Shah. It would also boost tourism, attracting visitors to learn about the generous donor Bhama Shah at this historic site. This move is expected to foster a sense of pride among locals for their history and heroes.
