Seva Teerth, Kartavya Bhawan Are Important Milestone in India's Journey Towards Viksit Bharat: PM Modi
Seva Teerth and Kartavya Bhavan consolidate key government offices, replacing century-old buildings to support India’s vision for modern, integrated governance, PM Modi said.
- On February 13, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Seva Teerth and Kartavya Bhavan 1 and 2 in New Delhi and released a commemorative postage stamp and coin.
- Seva Teerth will consolidate the Prime Minister's Office, National Security Council Secretariat and Cabinet Secretariat, while Kartavya Bhavan 1 and 2 will host multiple Union ministries as part of the Central Vista redevelopment project aligned with the Viksit Bharat vision.
- Modi criticised the old colonial buildings, saying `These 100-year-old buildings were becoming dilapidated. They lacked space and basic facilities and were inadequate to meet the requirements of a new nation` and called South Block and North Block symbols built to keep India 'under colonial shackles'.
- Modi said decisions taken in the new buildings will determine India's course toward becoming a developed nation by 2047, urging officers and employees to prioritize accountability and service and noting Lok Kalyan Marg's renaming reflects this shift.
- Framing the complex as a civilisational statement, Modi said Seva Teerth's name captures service values and the initiative is a central ideological effort to 'shed the colonial mindset'.
