PM Modi inaugurates state-of-the-art office complex, Kartavya Bhavan

PM Modi unveils eco-friendly Kartavya Bhavan, a key Central Vista building housing multiple ministries with advanced tech and sustainability features.

"Kartavya Bhavan exemplifies modern governance with secure, energy-efficient infrastructure for a new India. – PM Narendra Modi"

New Delhi, Aug 6

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the newly constructed Kartavya Bhavan–03 at Kartavya Path in New Delhi on Wednesday.

He also visited an exhibition related to the construction of the Kartavya Bhavan-03, showcasing the building's modern features and highlighting the aspects of the building constructed to ensure environmental sustainability.

Later in the evening, the Prime Minister will address a public gathering at the same venue at approximately 6.30 p.m.

The inauguration of Kartavya Bhavan–03 marks a significant milestone in the ongoing Central Vista redevelopment project.

As the first of several upcoming Common Central Secretariat buildings, the new structure is designed to streamline administrative functioning by consolidating various ministries and departments currently operating from scattered locations across Delhi.

Kartavya Bhavan–03 spans an area of approximately 1.5 lakh square meters, including two basement levels and seven floors (Ground + 6 levels).

It will house several key government offices, including those of the Ministries of Home Affairs, External Affairs, Rural Development, MSME, DoPT, Petroleum and Natural Gas, and the Principal Scientific Adviser (PSA).

The state-of-the-art complex integrates modern infrastructure with cutting-edge technology to support efficient and secure governance.

The new building will exemplify modern governance infrastructure featuring IT-ready and secure workspaces, ID card-based access controls, integrated electronic surveillance, and a centralised command system.

The facility will promote eco-consciousness through zero-discharge waste management, in-house solid waste processing, e-vehicle charging stations, and extensive use of recycled construction material.

Kartavya Bhavan–03 is designed to consume 30 per cent less energy compared to conventional office buildings.

It includes double-glazed facade windows to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce noise, LED lighting with occupancy sensors, energy-efficient lifts, and a centralised energy management system.

Solar panels installed on the rooftop will generate over 5.34 lakh units of electricity annually.

While the building looks world-class, I hope the government ensures these facilities actually improve public service delivery. Sometimes fancy offices don't translate to better governance. The real test will be whether common citizens benefit from this.

The energy efficiency measures are commendable! 30% less energy consumption and solar power generation shows commitment to sustainable development. More private companies should adopt such green building practices 🇮🇳

Modern infrastructure is good, but I wonder about the cost. Could this money have been better spent on rural schools or hospitals? The government needs to balance development projects with basic needs of common people.

The tech features sound impressive - ID-based access, electronic surveillance, command center. Hope they implement similar security in other sensitive locations too. Safety should be priority in all government buildings.
