Chamber for MPs, travelators, ladies' lounge: Work on at frenetic pace at new Parliament building
India Today
The construction work on the new Parliament building had started just before the second Covid-19 wave. This week, the government allowed media teams to visit the site.
A white 20-feet-tall metal wall separates history and the future in the making inside the Sansad Bhawan complex. The old Parliament building, a picture of grace and enigma, on one side of the wall, has been watching the frenetic pace of construction work in what was once its sprawling forecourt, reception, parking area and utility services zone, since December 10, 2020, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone.
Almost 50 metre-high construction cranes with high lifting capacity tower over the several floor high construction has already been done till now for the new building and the old one.
