Prime Minister Narendra Modi would be laying the foundation stone of the new Parliament building on December 10.
It is being built by Tata Projects for ₹970 crore. The total built-up area of the new building will be set into four floors across 64,500 sq meters, 17,000 sq meters more than the present building. It’ll have six entrances and 120 office spaces.
It would replace the existing colonial structure which would be completing hundred years in 2021.
Under the Central Vista redevelopment project, the new building will be constructed close to the existing one. It is also expected to be completed in less than two years from the start of construction work.
The new building will also have a grand Constitution Hall to showcase India’s democratic heritage, a lounge for members of Parliament, a library, multiple committee rooms, dining areas and ample parking space.
As per the plan, the new Parliament building, which will have separate offices for all MPs, will be equipped with the latest digital interfaces as a step towards creating ‘paperless offices’.
