The Government is neglecting environmental impact of the new central vista project

DELHI, India - May 11, 2021 - PRLog -- The new building can seat 1,224 MPs simultaneously. It has a new building to increase the number of MPs in the future, while a new office complex for all MPs of both houses will be built in the existing Shram Shakti Bhavan. The new building will have around 888 seats for Lok Sabha members and over 326 seats for Rajya Sabha members. The new Parliament building will be built in an area of 64,500 sqm. For this, the project has been awarded to Tata Projects Limited. The new building will have the same shape as the existing Parliament. It will have a cellar, ground floor, first and second floors, and its height will be the same as the old building. It will have separate offices for all MPs and will be equipped with the latest digital interfaces as a step towards creating a 'paperless office'.
