He also said future development planning should be environmentally conscious.


He also talked about the recently built new defence offices, the Central Vista and the new Parliament building.
“Lot of times, actions are taken with good intention gets caught in politics… Media is also forced to show it for TRP, I will give an example, those who know Delhi, are aware since second World War, defence offices were being run from hutments close to Rashtrapati Bhawan,” he said.


“I’m happy that the work for Central Vista and the new Parliament building is going on at full speed. In future, the capital of India would be talked about, every Indian will be proud of it, I am confident,” he said.
He also admired the artwork in the tunnel and suggested that perhaps it can be shut for traffic for some time on Sunday and people be allowed to see the murals.


The Pragati Maidan Integrated Transit Corridor project has been built at a cost of more than Rs 920 crore, entirely funded by the Central Government. It is aimed to provide hassle-free and smooth access to the new world class exhibition and convention centre being developed at Pragati Maidan, thereby facilitating easy participation of exhibitors and visitors in the programmes being held at Pragati Maidan.
