SANDHIKSHAN D. rated it 10/10 stars and wrote:
Joseph Marquis Dupleix was the governor general of French India from 14th January 1742 to 15th October 1754. Dupleix left Puducherry in 1754 but french recognition of his contribution came only in 1870, with the commissioning of two statues . One is in Puducherry while the other one in France. The former statue is now situated in Goubert Avenue at the end of Rock Beach. It was first installed on 16 July 1870. In 1979 the statue was moved from its previous location in the middle of the current Bharathy park to the current location at the beach. In 2014, the statue was further restored by the PWD department of Pondicherry . Dupleix Street was the former name of Jawaharlal Nehru Street in Pondicherry.
