"If the old Parliament House gave direction to post-independence India, the new building would become a witness to the creation of Aatma Nirbhar Bharat," Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said and with this vision of "New India", the design and architecture of the new Parliament building has been conceptualised and construction carried out.
The new Parliament building has been designed keeping in mind "Rising India" and its needs. Designed and conceptualised by HCP designs, Chief Architect Bimal Patel had said that the new Parliament building will incorporate the elements of India and will showcase India as a rising power.
For the new Parliament building, a triangular plot has been chosen right in front of the existing Parliament building, the plot was triangular and so the designers of the Parliament chose to make the new Parliament building a triangle not only to make maximum use of the space, but as Bimal Patel, head of HCP designs, said in an explainer video shared with The Sunday Guardian by the communications team of HCP designs, but also because of the "geometric significance of the shape triangle.
"As many people ask me why a 'Triangle', I say it is because many sacred geometrics celebrate "Triangles" and "Trinities". The Sri Yantra uses a Triangle, the three gods or the Trinities are a Triangle and therefore Triangle is sacred." Bimal Patel said.
The new Parliament House will have a Lok Sabha with a seating capacity of 770 plus members, a Rajya Sabha hall with a seating capacity of 500 plus members, a Lounge around a courtyard which will act as the central hall and a central space called the Constitution gallery.
