Parliament complex set for a green, sustainable facelift

Hindustan Times  

Ahead of the first sitting of the 18th Lok Sabha in June, the Parliament complex is getting a major facelift. The effort, overseen by the Central Public Works Department, will involve moving several statues, now scattered around the complex, to a prominent area, demolishing some of the walls inside the complex to create more open spaces, and landscaping the entire compound so as to frame the new Parliament building. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks after the inauguration of the new parliament building, in New Delhi, India, Sunday, May 28, 2023. India’s major opposition parties Sunday boycotted the inauguration of a new parliament building by Modi in a rare show of unity against his Hindu nationalist ruling party, which has spent nine years in power and is seeking a third term in general elections next year. The new Parliament building was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 28.
