The old Parliament building will now be known as ‘Samvidhan Sadan’, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said on Tuesday as the functioning of Parliament shifted to its new building.
The Speaker also announced that henceforth, terms such as ‘House’, ‘Lobby’, and ‘Galleries’ used in the proceedings of the Lok Sabha will refer to the new building, which is now the Parliament House of India.
“The building where we gathered in the morning will now be known as Samvidhan Sadan,” he said.
Earlier, at a function held in the Central Hall of the old Parliament building, Prime Minister Narendra Modi suggested that the building should be renamed “Samvidhan Sadan”.
“We are shifting to the new Parliament building. It is an auspicious day, it is Ganesh Chaturthi,” he said.
