Shantivan Chicholi prakalp is a project being developed by NIT. This is situated near Chicholi village on Katol road. This being developed as site for conservation of Babasaheb Ambedkar's memory where his belongings can be witnessed. Looks like the new structure has resemblance with Deeksha boomi structure on small scale. There are rare visitors on normal days but it gets more visitors on few days like Ambedkar jayanti. This is an upcoming tourist place and can bring tourism to this area.
There is a very nice Buddhist monastery and the work is still going on. When the work is completed, it looks very cool
