Text description provided by the architects. The memorial gate commemorates eight northeastern states of India as part of the Surajkund Craft Fair 2023, an annual fair in Faridabad that promotes Indian crafts and provides a platform for artisans. The site is located near the historic Surajkund Lake, commissioned in the 10th century by King Suraj Pal of the Tomar dynasty. Today the lake is no longer in use, but it is widely known for the Surajkund Craft Mela, which attracts more than a million visitors internationally during its three-week duration.
