New Delhi, August 11(HS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate 184 newly constructed, multi-storey flats for Members of Parliament at Baba Kharak Singh Marg around 10am today, marking a transformative milestone in the capital’s legislative infrastructure.

Environmental stewardship is a cornerstone of the project. The complex has achieved the prestigious GRIHA 3-star certification and fully adheres to the National Building Code 2016, incorporating energy-saving systems, renewable energy solutions, and effective waste management. Universal accessibility has been prioritized, making the premises Divyang-friendly and inclusive.
During the inauguration, Prime Minister Modi will plant a Sindoor sapling, interact with construction workers, and address an audience comprising MPs and dignitaries. Officials note that this development ushers in a new era of sustainable, dignified living for the nation’s lawmakers—where functionality, environmental consciousness, and safety converge at the very heart of India’s democracy.
