Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the construction site of the new Parliament building in Delhi late Sunday evening. Clad in a white kurta-churidara long with a safety helmet, he was seen inspecting the work-in-progress.

Several photos showed PM Modi doing the first-hand inspection of the construction status of the building which is being built at an estimated cost of ₹ 971 crore. The construction is expected to be completed by 2022.

The Prime Minister had a hectic schedule after returning from his three-day visit to the US, where he addressed the United Nations General Assembly and attended the Quad summit. Earlier in the day had a meeting with Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh and JP Nadda following which he visited the site. He visited the site at around 8.45 PM and spent around an hour at the site.
