    PM Modi inaugurated the new Parliament building on Sunday

    PM Narendra Modi and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla inaugurated the new Parliament building, 'Naya Sansad Bhawan,' on Sunday morning. A havan was performed for the occasion. PM Modi addressed the gathering inside the Lok Sabha chamber, marking his first speech in the new complex. Alongside the ruling BJP, approximately 25 other political parties joined the inauguration ceremony.

    Historic 'Sengol' scepter installed in Lok Sabha

    The historical scepter - 'Sengol' was placed in the Lok Sabha chamber, next to the Speaker's chair. High priests from Tamil Nadu's adheenams and mutts handed the scepter to PM Modi, who installed it in the new building. Notably, India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, received the same 'Sengol' at his residence on August 14 as a symbol of the "transfer of power."

    New Parliament building built at Rs. 971 crore

    The new Parliament building, part of the Central Vista Redevelopment Project, has been constructed for Rs. 971 crore, as stated on the project's website. The design of the new complex adopts a 'triangular shape' to maximize space utilization. The new Parliament building also boasts a noteworthy feature, the state-of-the-art 'Constitutional Hall,' which aims to "put the citizens at the heart of the democracy."

    Strong focus on energy efficiency in complex design

    The office spaces in the new Parliament building showcase an ultra-modern design, featuring state-of-the-art communication technologies and prioritizing security and efficiency. The complex has been designed with a strong focus on energy efficiency and is designated as a "platinum-rated green building." This demonstrates India's dedication to sustainable development and aligns with its commitment to creating environmentally-friendly infrastructure.

    New Parliament complex designed to be inclusive and 'divyang-friendly'

    The new Parliament complex is designed to be 'divyang-friendly' i.e. disabled-friendly and incorporates a central lounge area that complements the open courtyard, providing a space for members to interact. The Lok Sabha in the new complex accommodates 888 seats, while the Rajya Sabha has 348 seats. Furthermore, the redesigned floor plan allows for 1,272 seats in the Lok Sabha chamber to accommodate joint sessions.
