PRIME MINISTER SHRI NARENDRA MODI WILL DEDICATE NEWLY CONSTRUCTED PARLIAMENT BUILDING TO THE NATION ON 28 MAY 2023
New Delhi, 18 May, 2023. Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will dedicate the newly constructed Parliament building to the Nation on 28 May, 2023.
Lok Sabha Speaker Shri Om Birla met Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on Thursday and invited him to inaugurate the New Parliament Building. Constriction of the New Parliament Building is complete now and the new building symbolises the spirit of self –reliant India (Aatmanirbhar Bharat)
The present building of the Parliament was completed in 1927, which is now going to be almost 100 years old. The lack of space was being experienced in this building as per the present requirements. In both the Houses, there were also lack of convenient arrangements for the sitting of the MPs which was affecting efficiency of work of the Members.
Considering the above, both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha passed resolutions urging the government to construct a new building for the Parliament. Consequently, on 10 December 2020, the foundation stone of the new building of Parliament was laid by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. The newly constructed Parliament building has been built in record time with quality construction.
Now the newly constructed building of Parliament, which will work to further enrich India's glorious democratic traditions and constitutional values, is also equipped with state-of-the-art facilities which will help the Members to perform their functions in a better way.
