The old Parliament building will inspire the new generation – PM

Earlier, while giving a speech in the Lok Sabha, PM Modi said that from Tuesday we will move to a new building but this building will continue to inspire the coming generations. Our journey of 75 years has produced the best of many democratic traditions and processes and all the members of this House have actively contributed to them.

But we can never forget that my countrymen had invested hard work, sweat and money in the construction of this building.
