Treasures in trouble
Jawhar Sircar | 5 November 2023 | The Telegraph
The Central Vista project, which the present government has undertaken in the last four years, consists largely of redeveloping both sides of the Rajpath. The first phase was over when the main avenue was blacktopped afresh and the re-greened lawns adorned with stone benches, garden lights and sewer drains for a whopping 600 crore rupees. The next phase involved constructing a new Parliament building. This is also done and dusted, hopefully within its budget of Rs 1200 crore. The Narendra Modi government has, however, not yet revealed either the grand plan or the total expenditure.
