Design, construction within new Parliament calls for a review: Cong's Gogoi
Congress' deputy leader in the Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi on Friday called for a review of the design, construction and facilities within the new Parliament building and hoped that views of all major parties will be taken in due time.
Gogoi also asserted that there is much to be done in order for the new Parliament building to "reflect the greatest traditions of Indian parliamentary democracy".
"The design, construction and facilities within the new Indian parliament needs to be reviewed. There is much to be done in order for it to reflect the greatest traditions of Indian parliamentary democracy," Gogoi said in a post on X.
"The Parliament belongs to the people of India and not to one party or one individual. I hope that the views of all major parties will be taken in due time," he said.
His remarks come a day after Opposition leaders on Thursday took a swipe at the Modi government over "water leakage" in a lobby of the new Parliament building and hailed the "sturdy" old Parliament ..
