According to the plan, statues of labourers and skilled persons of the country would be placed in the galleries.

He said that effective policy is enhancing the recognition and honour of Pakistan in the world. He further said that the museum was set up in a way that it looked like a mini-Pakistan.

It is pertinent to mention here that the heritage museum, constructed on 60,000 square feet area, is the only museum of its kind in the country.
