On the 28th of May, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the new parliament building, which is part of the larger Central Vista project that is being revamped under the current BJP government. In his inaugural speech, the PM said that the new building represents the idea of a new India, and that the country was now shedding the “mentality of slavery".So today, we take a look back at the old parliament, and trace its origins all the way back to a small room inside a governor's house in pre-independent India. And we do this to understand how it came to be, what it can tell us about the functioning of our legislature, and the extent to which we have shed our colonial past. Guests: Chakshu Roy, parliamentary expert and the head of outreach at the PRS Legislative Research. And Indian Express' Damini Nath, who reports on the parliamentary for the paper.Hosted, written, and produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

Bimal Patel, the architect and urban planner behind the Central Vista project that includes the new Parliament building, talks about why most people will be pleasantly surprised by his work and the perils of working in polarised times.

Ravish Kumar Roast - Central Vista, Modi, 2000 Note _ Abhishek Tiwari, Sanjay Dixit

Paryavaran Bhawan, Vanijya Bhawan, and Urja Bhawan are among swanky new govt office buildings that have come up over past 10 years to house ministries away from Central Secretariat.  

Bimal Patel, the architect behind the newly inaugurated Kartavya Path, explains in this 2021 episode how Central Vista will inverse the iconography of power and why most people will be pleasantly surprised

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday evening inaugurated the revamped 3-km-long Central Vista Avenue, which extends from Rashtrapati Bhawan to the India Gate. The tree-lined space flanked by green spaces and water channels is one of the most visited tourist places in Delhi and is best known for the annual Republic Day parade.  PM Modi also unveiled the 28-feet black granite statue of Subhas Chandra Bose, which is placed under the India Gate canopy. The statue is hand-sculpted by a team led by renowned sculptor Arun Yogiraj from a single block of granite stone weighing 280 metric tonne. The block of stone was brought to Delhi from Telangana and it took two months to carve the statue of Bose from it. The avenue was named Kingsway by the British after King George V, who visited Delhi during the Delhi Durbar of 1911 and shifted the capital from Calcutta to the city. Post-Independence, it was renamed Rajpath. A road bisecting the Kingsway was named Queensway. It is now known as Janpath. Now Rajpath has once again been renamed as Kartavya Path, which translates to path of duty. This is the first project that has been completed under the Modi government's larger ambitious Central Vista redevelopment plan. The redevelopment project of the nation's power corridor envisages a new triangular Parliament building, 10 buildings of the Common Central Secretariat, revamping the Rajpath, a new prime minister's residence and office, a new vice-president's enclave, Central Conference Centre, Additional Buildings for National Archives, among others.  Conceived in September 2019, the planned redevelopment is estimated to cost Rs 20,000 crore and involves projects spread over 6 years till 2026.  The project for the New Parliament Building was awarded at an estimated cost of Rs 862 crore to Tata Projects. The project for rejuvenation of Central Vista Avenue was awarded at an estimated cost of Rs 477 crore to Shapoorji Pallonji Group. Larsen & Toubro bagged the contract for the construction and maintenance of the first three of the 10 buildings of the Common Central Secretariat. In October 2019, architect Bimal Patel's Gujarat-based firm HCP Design had won the consultancy bid for the Central Vista redevelopment.  The consultancy services include master plan, building designs, cost estimation, landscape and traffic integration plans and parking facilities. HCP has developed several projects including Sabarmati Riverfront Development, Central Vista and state secretariat in Gandhinagar, Mumbai Port Complex, redevelopment of Varanasi temple complex, IIM Ahmedabad's new campus and CII-SN Centre of Excellence Kolkata etc. Recently, Hyderabad-based DEC Infrastructure emerged as the lowest bidder for building the Executive Enclave that will house the PMO, the Cabinet Secretariat, the India House and the National Security Council Secretariat. It had quoted an amount of around Rs 1,189 crore. The government in August said that 70% of work on the new Parliament building project has been achieved and the targeted date of completion is November 2022. The new Rajya Sabha hall is being built with a capacity of 384 seats while the new Lok Sabha hall will have 770 seats, with an additional capacity of up to 1134 seats for hosting joint sessions. The Vice President's enclave is expected to be completed by January 2023.

A 3-km long revamped stretch, connecting Rashtrapati Bhawan to India Gate, was on Thursday evening opened to the public by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The road, popular as ‘Rajpath' so far, will now be called ‘Kartavya Path'. Part of the larger Central Vista project, the stretch is a glimpse of the future, a peek into the larger design.  After the revamped boulevard and soaring spirits, let us shift our focus to fallen heroes of financial markets. They were like shooting stars, who rose, burnt bright and disappeared, leaving behind a trail. And unlike the stars, this trail was that of destruction. People like Harshad Mehta, Ketan Parekh, Ravi Narain and Chitra Ramakrishna had one thing in common - greed. Markets may not forgive them, but lessons can be drawn.  These fallen heroes have, time and again, tested the resilience of financial markets. But markets have a habit of moving on. Meanwhile, Indian markets may see intermittent corrections due to policies of global central banks and some other factors, analysts expect India's relative outperformance to continue. It is now the world's fifth biggest equity market. Get a sneak peek into what analysts are buying and selling as India looks to shine amid the global gloom and doom. After the markets, let us shift our focus to a prolonged legal battle, on which curtains were recently drawn in India. In a big win for the Central government, the Delhi High Court has set aside an arbitral award that directed ISRO's commercial arm Antrix Corporation to pay over $560 million to Bangalore-based start-up Devas Multimedia. We break down the entire controversy and more in this episode of the podcast. 

Bimal Patel, the architect behind the newly inaugurated Kartavya Path, explains in this 2021 episode how Central Vista will inverse the iconography of power and why most people will be pleasantly surprised.

For all its clarion call to the more empowered India of the future, the Central Vista project seems far too preoccupied with a past that has either lost its power to cramp the nation's present and future, or has become so entangled with it that separation seems to be a hopeless endeavour.

This week, we talk with Aneesha Dharwadker, assistant professor in architecture and landscape architecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and author of the recently published article Dystopia's Ghost. In this episode, we revisit the remaking of New Delhi's Central Vista project, its design, politics, and history.

The appeal of global brands cuts across religious, linguistic and national barriers. Most of them follow a simple rule while dealing with politically and socially charged themes -- steer clear. But some companeis sometimes stir up controversies by treading into the unfamiliar terrain of politics. Recent social media posts of some global brands on Pakistan's ‘Kashmir Solidarity Day' is one such example. It backfired and the companies were forced to issue clarifications. Take a peek into this tricky subject.  After global giants' PR disaster, let us now move on to a homegrown multinational company's big strides towards becoming world's largest generic pharmaceutical firm. In conversation with Business Standard's Sohini Das, Lupin CEO Vinita Gupta shared her company's growth plans in the US and in China.  Meanwhile, some analysts have issued a buy call on Lupin whose shares dipped to Rs 786 apiece on Tuesday. Let us now see if investors can benefit from the Brent crude rally too? Brent crude prices have been on a one-way rally since the start of the year, rising about 20% so far in 2022. This has pulled back equities from their recent highs as oil price rise can lead to inflation and hamper the government's import bills. We find out if investors can benefit from this. From Mumbai's bustling Dalal Street, let us now shift our focus to the quiet central axis of New Delhi, the manicured lawns, gardens and buildings around India Gate and Raisina Hill which are now giving way to the government's Central Vista Project. Find out how this area will look like once it is completed and more in this episode of the podcast. Watch video

The Housing and Urban Affairs Ministry has been allocated Rs 2,600 crore in Union Budget 2022-23 for the construction of non-residential office buildings of the Central Vista redevelopment project, including the Parliament and Supreme Court. This is Rs 767.56 crore more than Rs 1,833.43 crore given in the last fiscal. For residential purposes, the ministry has been given Rs 873.02 crore.  The Central Vista is India's central administrative area located in New Delhi. During the colonial era, leading British architects Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker had designed the Central Vista complex.  It was inaugurated in 1931 and comprised Rashtrapati Bhawan, Parliament House, North and South Blocks and the Record Office, which was later named as The National Archives, along with the India Gate monument and the civic gardens on either side of the Rajpath.  The redevelopment of Central Vista was conceived in September 2019, involving multiple projects spread over six years and estimated to cost Rs 20,000 crore. Facing flak from opposition over it, the government said that a new parliament building was needed as the current one dates back to the 1920s and shows signs of “distress and over-use”. The planned redevelopment works include the new triangular Parliament building, Chambers for Members of Parliament, the Central Vista Avenue, 10 buildings of the Common Central Secretariat, Central Conference Centre, Additional Buildings for National Archives, new Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts building, facilities for security officials, and official residences for the Vice President, Prime Minister, Executive Enclave with Prime Minister's Office, Cabinet Secretariat, National Security Council Secretariat, relocation of National Museum in North & South Block etc.  All these projects are planned in a phased and sequential manner till 2026. The project for New Parliament Building has been awarded at an estimated cost of Rs 862 crore to Tata Projects while the project for rejuvenation of Central Vista Avenue has been awarded at an estimated cost of Rs 477 crore to Shapoorji Pallonji Group. The new Parliament building is scheduled to be completed by October 2022. At present, 39 Ministries are housed on the Central Vista whereas around 12 Ministries have offices outside the Vista. As part of the redevelopment, all the 51 Ministries are proposed to be located at one location to improve coordination. The present buildings of the Central Vista shall be replaced with modern office buildings with capacity to hold about 54,000 personnel. All these offices are proposed to be connected through a loop of automated underground people mover, over ground shuttles and walkways.  Last year, Larsen & Toubro was awarded the contract for the construction and maintenance of the first three of the 10 buildings of the Common Central Secretariat. Six infrastructure firms are now in the race to win the contract to construct the Executive Enclave, which will house the new PMO, Cabinet Secretariat, India House and National Security Counci

The Delhi High Court recently held that the construction of Central Vista Avenue is of national importance and cannot be stopped. owing to the fact that no rules were being broken and the project has to be completed by November 2021, or else we risk causing hindrance to the Republic Day celebrations 2022, guys the Republic day celebrations! There's so much to celebrate about our republic this year…right?! I personally welcome this judgment, and the strict adherence to timelines of national importance. this is the judicial activism that was missing! Finally we can enforce the Supreme Court mandated deadlines for rejuvenating river Yamuna, or cleaning the air in Delhi, both of which have been pushed forward indefinitely for past 30 years or so…right?

A new parliament building, as well as new residences for the Prime Minister and the Vice President will come up. Some of the building that will be brought down include the National Museum, the National Archives and the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts.

Defying all criticisms, construction work for the controversial Central Vista Re-development project has been going on in Delhi through the thick of the pandemic. This 2.8-billion-rupee worth project which has been touted by critics as the Modi government's "vanity project”, is going on under what the government has defined as "essential services". The project involves construction of a new parliament and revamping the North and South blocks of Lutyens Delhi which requires tearing down some iconic government buildings that form a part of Delhi's historical narrative. While initial legal battles to stop this project was unsuccessful as the Supreme Court gave its green signal, now there is another petition that is being heard at the Delhi High Court that seeks to temporarily halt the construction activities owing to the pandemic.The Centre it seems had been continuing the construction work through Delhi's lockdown period, on the condition that all labourers are staying on-site. However, a ground report by The Quint that was brought on record at the High Court as well, found out that there are several construction workers in fact, who stay off site and travel to work every day. Although the petitioners have raised concerns over the impact of this move on the construction workers and Delhi's Covid situation, the Centre has called the PIL a "facade" and an attempt to stall the project. Even as the Delhi High Court order is pending, let's deep dive into what makes the government's ambitious project a contentious one, and what concerns and objections do historians and conservationists have around it.

“Projects such as the Central Vista underscore the agency of architecture for ‘those that govern us’—and how, misleading or not, design itself can construe the image of the nation.” The juxtaposition of New Delhi’s Central Vista project over the ongoing public health crisis in India has raised several questions regarding the relationship between political power and architecture. In this episode, Architecture Off-Centre host Vaissnavi Shukl reads an excerpt from her graduate thesis titled Lotus Blooms and Fighter Jets: New Delhi’s Central Vista Project and the Architecture of National Identity.

In this episode the flaws in the new the decision of the government to reconstruct the CentralVista in New Delhi are addressed and also rational reasons are given so as to prove it is not necessary when our country has many feats to achieve .

In this episode, we'll discuss the plan for India's new parliament building, part of the Modi government's ambitious central vista project which entails building and refurbishing the government buildings on part of the 3.5km stretches from Rashtrapati Bhavan to India Gate. On December 10, Prime Minister Modi laid the foundation stone for the new Parliament building and the new building was the need of the hour as it would be equipped with new technology and have more space for smooth functioning of Parliament and various ministries. There has also been criticism from several quarters, much of it centred on the cost of the central vista project and whether undertaking a project such as this is appropriate at a time when the economy is suffering. A batch of petitions in the Supreme Court opposing the proposed change in land usage of the Central Vista. So as we look ahead and back while trying to give context to this story one overarching question stands out - what is the case for a new parliament building and does India need one. In this episode we'll take up that question in detail, tracking the way the role and functions of parliament have expanded since independence and whether the current infrastructure is enough to support it. We'll also take up the question of whether an upgrade in infrastructure alone is enough to fix many of the issues with parliament's functioning. Guest: Chakshu Roy, head of legislative and civic engagement, PRS legislative research.

Despite a lot of controversies around the Central Vista re-development project, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be laying the foundation stone for the new Parliament building on 10 December. The project which involves creating a bigger parliament, revamping the North and South Blocks and demolishing the existing structures on the Rajpath boulevard, has been given to Tata Projects Limited. This is estimated to cost around Rs 971 crore but experts say that it comes at an even bigger cost to the environment and the history of Delhi and India. Although the Centre has been fast tracking approvals, the Supreme Court earlier this week, expressed a strong displeasure over how the Centre is "aggressively" rushing through everything, even as a batch of petitions regarding the matter is pending hearing. While it allowed the government to lay the foundation stone, it warned that no construction, demolition, or felling of trees can be carried out in the site, until the pleas are heard by the court. What are the ramifications of the Centra Vista Re-development project? Why is the government's ambitious project raising questions? And what do historians and conservationists have to say about it?
