The new Chhattisgarh Assembly building in Nava Raipur is nearing completion, with an expected inauguration on November 1st. Deputy Chief Minister Arun Sao inspected the construction on July 10th, reporting that the work is scheduled to be finished by September. The inauguration ceremony is anticipated to be graced by either Prime Minister Narendra Modi or President Droupadi Murmu, coinciding with the state’s foundation day. Preparations are underway to make the event a memorable celebration of Chhattisgarh’s 25th anniversary of formation in 2025. During the inspection, Deputy CM Sao experienced the MLA seat in the assembly to ensure comfort. Interior work is progressing rapidly, with the interior of Block A (Assembly Secretariat) and Block C (Ministers’ Chambers) nearly complete. The main auditorium and Block B (Chief Minister and Assembly Speaker’s office) are being prioritized. The new assembly building will showcase Chhattisgarh’s culture and craftsmanship. The building includes a vast 52-acre campus, a house with a seating capacity of 200 members, an auditorium for 500 spectators, parking for 700 cars, and separate chambers for 24 ministers. The monsoon session will be held in the old assembly. The winter session will mark the beginning of meetings in the new assembly.
