At its ground-breaking ceremony, he calls upon MPs to keep spirit of optimism alive around democracy by being always accountable to people and Constitution.Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said the new Parliament building, for which the ground-breaking ceremony was held, would channel and reflect the aspirations of 21st century India.
Mr. Modi said, “The new building will be
the amalgamation of the new and the ancient, and reflects also the spirit of
fostering change in oneself adapting to changing circumstances. Our
Constitution was framed and given to us in the current parliament building and
it is the repository of much of our democratic legacy but it is important to be
realistic as well. Over the last 100 years, several modifications have been
made to the current building to the point where even the building requires
rest. Which is why the decision was taken to construct a new Parliament
building”.
