New Delhi: The central government has released pictures of the new Parliament building. The photos of the interiors were released by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, which is responsible for the construction of Parliament and the reconstruction of the central vista.

In 2020, Tata Group took up construction for a contract of 861 crores. However, there are reports that the cost has gone up to 1200 crores.

The new Lok Sabha chamber has 888 seats. The Rajya Sabha chamber has 384 seats.
