At a special session of Parliament on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi proposed that the old Parliament building be named 'Samvidhan Sadan' (Constitution House) when the new Parliament is inaugurated. He stated that the dignity of the iconic building should be maintained even after Parliament moves to the new structure. The Prime Minister urged that the old building should not just be known as the 'Old Parliament House' but rather be given the more meaningful name 'Samvidhan Sadan' to reflect its significance as the site where the Constitution was framed. PM Modi's suggestion highlights the building's heritage and aims to preserve its stature when Parliament convenes in the new building.
