Four guides working at the Statue of Unity in Gujarat returned a purse containing Rs 70,000 cash to its rightful owner, an Uttar Pradesh-based woman, who forgot it at a food court during her visit to the statue in Gujarat a few days back.
Since the woman had already left for her native place in UP, officials at the Statue of Unity, situated near Kevadia in Narmada district, handed over the purse to her Gujarat-based relative on Wednesday after verifying details, the Statue of Unity Area Development and Tourism Governance Authority said in a statement.
Gujarat Additional Chief Secretary Rajiv Kumar Gupta lauded the guides for their honesty and integrity.
