The Union government led by Prime Minister has initiated a project, the Central Vista redevelopment project in 2019 which aims at constructing a new Parliament building, near the exiting Parliament complex.
Now the Centre took one more step towards the project. PM Modi will perform the bhumi puja ceremony for the new parliament building next week.
According to the information, the new Parliament complex will be designed in a triangular form. The project worth Rs 861.90 crore is expected to be completed by 2022.
Media reports claimed that the new Parliament building which will be constructed near the existing Parliament complex will have the facilities like a lounge for members, multiple committee rooms, a library, and dining areas.
When a petition was filed in the Supreme Court against the Central Vista redevelopment project, the Centre told the court that the exiting Parliament building was constructed in the British era and it cannot withstand future needs.
However, the opposition Congress party is not happy with the project. The party said, how can the government go ahead with the project when the country is fighting the ongoing pandemic.
