The new parliament structure in Delhi, according to Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, is a "waste of money" and nothing more than Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "personal vanity project." The Congress leader asserted that PM Modi, like every "dictator," wants to leave a lasting memory through his new parliament structure.
Jairam Ramesh took to Twitter and said, "The first of the personal vanity projects. Every dictator wants to leave behind his architectural legacy. Colossal waste of money".
The comment comes after Prime Minister Modi visited the new parliament building for a surprise visit on Thursday. He examined numerous pieces for more than an hour. The Prime Minister Modi engaged with building employees while also observing new amenities being built at both Houses of Parliament.
