Parliament House

Parliament House, Parliament building in New Delhi, India.

Parliament House stands on Rafi Marg in New Delhi, east of the Old Parliament House. The sources describe a triangular building of four floors covering 64,500 m2, built to the same height as the old building and made earthquake resistant. Its three sections take the banyan tree, peacock and lotus as themes, and a 6.5 m cast national emblem weighing 9,500 kg sits on top.

Inaugurated on May 28, 2023, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the building replaced the previous legislative structure that had served since 1927. The transition marked a new phase in India's parliamentary infrastructure after almost a century of continuous use.

The building's three sections take their themes from national symbols: the banyan tree, the peacock and the lotus. Six entrances are named after mythological creatures — Gaja, Ashva, Garuda, Makara, Shardula and Hamsa — with statues of each flanking its doorway. The flag is hoisted at Gaja Dwar, and Makara Dwar opens toward the old parliament building.

Visitors can enter the premises only with prior authorization, and security screening is mandatory at entry points. The surrounding areas remain visible from outside during daylight, particularly along the main roads when the gates are open.

The building's triangular plan is split into three sections themed on national symbols: the banyan tree, the peacock and the lotus. Six entrances are guarded by statues of mythological creatures — Gaja, Ashva, Garuda, Makara, Shardula and Hamsa — and the Makara Dwar opens toward the old parliament building.
