NEW DELHI: The Centre has floated a request for proposal (RFP) to redevelop the Parliament House or build a new one, sources said on Thursday.
The Union Housing and Urban Affairs (HUA) Ministry has also invited architecture firms to redevelop the central vista, a 3-km stretch from the Rashtrapati Bhavan to the India Gate, and construct a new common Central Secretariat for offices of all ministries.
The sources said by August 2022, the monsoon session of the Parliament will be held in a new or a retrofitted building.
By next year, the central vista will be redeveloped and the Common Secretariat will be built by 2024, they said.
