"PM office is filled with a lot of emotions and respect": Union Minister Nityanand Rai on inauguration of Seva Teerth

PM Modi inaugurates new PMO 'Seva Teerth,' approves cashless treatment scheme for accident victims and sets new target for Lakhpati Didis.

"PM's office is filled with a lot of emotions and respect. - Nityanand Rai"

Patna, February 14

Union Minister Nityanand Rai on Saturday expressed optimism over the inauguration of the new office of Prime Minsiter Narendra Modi, 'Seva Teerth.'

Speaking to the media, the Union Minister reflected on the Prime Minister's efforts to advance the service and growth of the nation and its citizens.

"... PM's office is filled with a lot of emotions and respect.. PM Modi believes that whatever work we do for the country's people is service...," he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday dedicated the new Prime Minister's Office to the nation, now renamed 'Seva Teerth'.

In its very first set of decisions after shifting to Seva Teerth, PM Modi signed important files relating to decisions that reflect the spirit of Seva. These decisions touch every section of society: farmers, women, youth, and vulnerable citizens.

The Prime Minister has approved the launch of the PM RAHAT scheme. Under this initiative, accident victims will get cashless treatment of up to Rs 1.5 lakh, ensuring that no life is lost due to a lack of immediate medical help.

The government has crossed the landmark of 3 crore Lakhpati Didis, more than a year ahead of the original March 2027 timeline.

PM Modi has now set a new, ambitious target of 6 crore Lakhpati Didis by March 2029, doubling both scale and aspiration.

The unveiling of the Seva Teerth building complex marks a transformative milestone in India's administrative governance architecture and reflects the Prime Minister's commitment to building a modern, efficient, accessible and citizen-centric governance ecosystem, a release said.

For decades, several key government offices and ministries functioned from fragmented and ageing infrastructure spread across multiple locations in the Central Vista area. This dispersion led to operational inefficiencies, coordination challenges, escalating maintenance costs and sub-optimal working environments. The new building complexes address these issues by consolidating administrative functions within modern, future-ready facilities.

Seva Teerth houses the Prime Minister's Office, the National Security Council Secretariat, and the Cabinet Secretariat, all of which were previously located across different locations.

The 3 crore Lakhpati Didi target achieved early is fantastic news for women's empowerment! Doubling the target to 6 crore is ambitious, but if the support systems are strong, it can transform rural economies. More power to our sisters!

While a new building and schemes are welcome, I hope the focus remains on ground-level execution. We've seen many announcements. The real 'Seva' will be measured by how quickly these benefits reach the last person in the queue. Let's see.

As someone who has worked near the old offices, the coordination challenges were real. A modern, integrated workspace for the PMO, NSC, and Cabinet Secretariat should improve decision-making speed. A practical step for a 21st-century India.

"Seva Teerth" is a powerful name. It sets the right intention for the nation's highest office. The first decisions focusing on farmers, women, and accident victims show the direction. Hope this citizen-centric approach becomes the permanent culture of governance. 🇮🇳

Reducing operational inefficiency and maintenance costs of old buildings is a smart use of taxpayer money in the long run. The symbolism is good, but the real test is the work that comes out of that office. Jai Hind!
