Many major hospitals surround this iconic building which makes it easier for commuters and outstation visitors to reach the area famed as Lokmat Square. Now this building is all set to get the much required facelift, as the work to paint this mega structure is underway.
The present colour of the Lokmat Building is steel grey with dark blue paint on the elevated portion.
While speaking to Nagpur Today, Chief of Lokmat Building Owners’ Association Wing Commander Bora confirmed the development saying that the building is being repainted after 11 years. After a lot of deliberations and discussions with the members of the Lokmat Building Owners’ Association, this work of face-lift is being undertaken.
