The Lead Architect Dr. Bimal Patel makes a presentation on the proposed transformation of the Central Vista followed by a Q&A.
The Central Vista in New Delhi was designed in the early twentieth century by Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker to be a magnificent icon of imperial governance in India. Post-independence, the Central Vista was appropriated as seat of the Indian Government and its buildings were adapted and repurposed. Over the next seventy years many buildings have been built to house the increasing spatial needs of government offices and institutions. However, lacking an overarching vision, these buildings seem ad hoc with unstructured layouts on underutilized plots. The Central Vista landscape and the heritage buildings, although majestic, lack modern facilities and sufficient space and are unable to serve their present function effectively. The government has resolved to comprehensively address this situation.
The plan for comprehensively improving and augmenting the Central Vista aims to strengthen governance infrastructure by building new facilities for India’s Parliament, an efficient and sustainable Central Secretariat to house all the Ministries of the Government of India, well-equipped executive offices, and adequate residences for the Vice President and the Prime Minister. Cultural institutions on the Central Vista will be strengthened by the creation of new facilities for the Indira Gandhi National Centre for Arts, and a National Museum in the North and South Blocks that showcases the rich and vast cultural history of India. Public spaces will be expanded, refurbished, and provided with adequate amenities and infrastructure to make them more comfortable for use. The grade-I heritage buildings, namely the Parliament House, North and South Blocks, and the National Archives of India will be restored as per Heritage Conservation Standards. The Central Vista Redevelopment project will create new facilities for governance and cultural institutions, render the public spaces easier to use and maintain, restore, and strengthen the Vista’s heritage, and project India’s commitment to progress.
Lady who was saying there will be no boating and ice cream 🤣. She didn’t even see the presentation.
And she was a landscape designer herself.
She doesn't know her job. Maybe she's an imposter.
The criticism is so hate filled and illogical, the humble and clear fact answers from Dr. Patel is commendable. A real professional knows the wasteful idiots will just ask questions. I hope Lutyens media just know the difference of asking questions and creating non sensical ruckus.
If they can vandalise manufacturing facilities of top companies like apple then this is normal.

Bimal Patel we with you
Bhai ase logo k bich interview dene aaya h whi bdi baat h
the best thing about him is that he never reacted, or got angry with any of the questions...but humorously answered all of them, refrained from making any political statement or acting like a political puppet.
He logically answered all the questions and owned the project to whatever it will be...good or bad.
Such a gentleman he is.... Answers all the biased questions based on prejudices about the work he is doing....Keep going sir....You represent new india.🙏👍
wtf the criticism in the whole qna is full of hate toward the development why so much hate for such a amazing project thanks to bimal sir for such an wonderful project execution .
He also did the New Kashi Viswanath Project....it's so beautifull now.
he also did Sabarmati Riverfront in Ahmedabad. He is rebuilding India 😍
Also Gandhinagar urban planning
He's one of the best in the world.
Kashi Vishwanath Corridor looks like a shopping complex now. So no, it's not "beautiful". It's ugly as hell and has absolutely no sign of Indian architecture. "But muh modern architecture". It's "modern" for westerners and based on their older styles. What the hell does that have to do with India?

Ye keval chamcho ko hi lagta he.
Those who kept saying that there weren't any expert consultations were just basically those who were salty that they were not consulted. And if we move like how these people (especially the old man) wanted.. consultation.. discourse.. call everyone.. give chai paani.. then their will only get completed when we get as old as that man
Isn't that what happened for the last 60 to 70 years policy paralysis. That generation is still stuck there and do not want to evolve with the times
Awesome presentation. Modi performs like ceo of the Bharat rather than a politician. Kudos for giving free hand to experts to design a modern efficient space.. the contrast between logical presentation and cringe worthy q&a, epitomizes the anger of lutyens against Modi :-)
Kudos to Indians for giving him full majority seats in Parliament.
☺️☺️
True
He is a leader not a CEO and definitely not a politician.
Thank you Mr Modi and Mr Bimal Patel for this amazing transformation of central Vista, central secretariat and parliament. The people who are saying there should have been more public consultation, I don't understand what exactly you mean by that. There are thousands of architects and urban planners in this country and whatever you do you can never make everybody happy. So I feel that if we were to wait for everyone to come on the same page, this project would have never been built. And unfortunately this seems to be the motive of some people.
100 percent awesome!
She wants ice cream and boating .
Thank God She doesn't ask for sea or glacier.
And she's a landscape architect 😂😂😂
The question and answers session at the end makes me realize more and more of what was wrong and what is changing. These critics are those who want to spend a millennia discussing and not getting the job done. These dinosaurs need to go.
They all have a problem with things getting done fast. What a nightmare.
Rightly said 👍
Their problem is that it's being done by modi.
India which these handful of ppl used to rule over is fast changing under their very nose nd they're feeling left out.
Another cause for their pain is that modi is not accomodating these ediots.
Just imagine a project of this scale happening in under upa government.
How many ppl would hv made money?
Whole lobby would have gotten stacks of green.
Most of the criticism seems to be the product of bias, jealousy, personal preference, or misinformation(sadly could be caused by low iq, making some people unable to understand what Mr. Patel said). Excellent project, well done HCP
design
Definitely not misinformation. The tender was public, the selection process was transparent and bimal patel has been giving public presentation about his design since last two years including this latest one
@@coolclouds7055 yes but false information and rumors are being circulated by many people
@@ayushmainali4817 these same people. They are perpetrators not victims. Notice how they ignored the entire presentation where he covered every minute point, yet these comrade sepoys kept harping on their own thing. this is deliberate propaganda
@@AbdulSamad-jw6xq Rightly said
@@coolclouds7055 can't agree more than what you mentioned
bunch of Activist jokers are angry beacuse they didnt get to decide how the project should be and it is a good thing.
That's why they hate Modi's BJP as they don't invite these lutyens fucks for approval or even consultation like Congress.
These activist champions of people's participation and personal opinions are the biggest problem for development of India. When all the mess created at present was neverr done in consultation with them but they take that as holy cow of culture and heritage. Hats off to Bimal for inviting and then facing their biased query th elan ..... Bimal, you have a big fan in me!
@Indian Patriot yes mostly china
The activists don't represent the people of India, and they delude themselves and have the audacity to believe that they do.
Lol imagine we have people now asking "why going so fast". Well sir the question that should be answered is why we couldn't go faster? If we sit and deliberate infinity world will move ahead.
Well construction should be done quickly, but planning could have taken longer without problems. This project is different from say WDFC, where you don't need as much time in planning because you don't need to take multiple opinions into consideration.
Also, this project has a lot of subjective/emotional aspects which engg. project have very little of.
@@itsover9008 seriously? This took literally over a year for planning, hundreds of people were involved (maybe over thousands). What are you even talking about?
@@reeti5958 Over a year is actually really fast for a project in India, wouldn't you say so? Most things in India, especially under previous govts, get stuck in planning stage forever.
@@itsover9008 and how is that a bad thing? It was really slow in India, making it so fast and efficient actually helps to build these places, complete constructions and develop infrastructure in stable way. If someone is going to spend 3-4 years in building only design then it can't be completed in under 1 government supervision, which will cause more problems when the second set of government arrives.
Also frankly more than 1 year is lot of time for designing, how can you expect development if you think that 1 year isn't enough for designing? The parliament building could've been designed by less than 40 people in a year, let alone hundreds (even thousands) of people and designers working together on the design.
Dr. Patel bravely gets into this sort of hostile environment and yet answers all criticisms without taking them personally. I have seen this in his urban planning lectures as well. Respect this gentleman's clarity, candor yet humility.
hats off! He is such a gentleman. Answered all the tactic questions by so called urban liberals. Big fan Bimal Sir!
I feel the fresher joining TCS gets a better workspace then this. Never thought a government and top most officials works in this kind of space.
Yeah it's abysmal.
All those people who are complaining are not happy just because they’re not part of this huge project. They didn’t get a chance to siphon money to their bank account.
True 😊☺️
Why do Indians make statements instead of asking questions? Nowhere do I see this practice. It looks like as if people are more interested in projecting how intellegent they are rather than asking questions!
Bimal Patel Aage Badho..India Aapke Saath Hai
Most of the questions and comments in the end were from bad faith totally devoid of facts. This is a fabulous project which when completed will only increase it's grandeur
People asking dumb questions just for the sake of opposing😂
why only bringing people in to parliament ..... why not also invite terrorists and stone pelters or for that matter why not have parliament and gov funtion from Ramleela maidan for the sake of transperancy and openness ?
These Uncles and Aunties who enjoy free lavish life will celebrate only attacks on Bharat and not safety of people.
Very well said on name of wanting transparency this people at end have asked their baseless questions just showcasing their frustration towards Modi
Just look at the people who talk about faults in design/landscape/architecture/planning.they are nothing but product of same Lutyen Gang, which is filing one petition after another in SC........Glad I could see these faces
Pointing out faults isn't a bad thing. We need constructive criticism. It's just that these people are filled with hate and bias, and are unable to ask real questions. They are more concerned with hating on the current govt than actually evaluating the Central Vista project.
@@itsover9008 I am sure they would hate it even if the modi gov is not there.their real hatred is towards the progress of Bharat,it's ordinary people and opening of space to more of the public.
Modi is not their target of hate,it is you,he just happens to be slightly in the way,it would be someone else tomorrow.
@@rassilkrishnan8940 I certainly hope not. That would be a bigger issue than hate for BJP.
@pavan Nope. You need to read again, and understand from a mathematical point of view. OP's words seemed like he doesn't like anyone who criticizes. I'm saying that criticism is good, but most people who are doing it, are being political and not logical.
Dude ... What the fuck is public consultation ... They needed an efficient office space ... They are doing it ... Why do you need it to reflect democracy and diversity 🤣 ...
When you are hiring someone ... You look at their efficiency ... Not caste , colour , diversity etc ....
Same way.. the building must be efficient first ... And tell your architectural stories if there is any scope ...
You don't build something with a primary objective of the architecture reflecting something ....
And they are saying these buildings are elitist ... 🤦♂️
I think some people get home sick when everything is neat and clean ...
They don't know what they want. What meaningful suggestions will any non-architect give? Even when we are constructing our own house we only give our requirements and the architect comes up with the design and we say change this or change that. That's all. A non-architect is not going to come up with a detailed plan and drawings
People who oppose needs to remember, this is not for you and me or Modi...this is for our kids. Once they become ambitious to lead this 5000 years old civilisation.
In kamino ko kon samjhaye 😅😂🤣
Good presentation, He already told about public space and vendor still they are is asking silly/biased questions. The constructive question should haven been asked would be about scalability of new infrastructure. What if in future govt creates new ministries or departments. Are they ensuring to create extra infrastructure for few new departments keeping future need in mind to avoid new build ups and cost ?....and what about food court for general public ?....गोल गप्पे ,भेल पूरी के अलावा कुछ मिलता नही खाने को ? ....अक्षरधाम टेंपल की तरह एक बड़ा और साफ सुथरा फूड कोर्ट तो मिलना ही चाहिए । कभी परिवार के साथ बैठ कर पार्टी करो तो बेकार सा खाना पंडरा रोड से लाना पड़ता है ।
Bimal patel👍👍
Most of the audience were asking about why there’s a hurry, but if they would have a sensible brain that question wouldn’t have come up. Because of such over consultation and people participation India could not see any major facelift in 40-50yrs. When China was gearing up during 90s we were also started globalisation, one was running and another was crawling. Now their economic position is pretty clear.
First time I have watched QnA after a seminar. And he nailed almost all answers. Great man !!
it has shikhar, and clearly inspired from hindu culture, great , hindu country , hindu culture
It’s really laughable that at the end the landscape architect (old lady) who is talking about the vendor should be placed as it is. Really! That’s how a landscape architecture imagine, apparently she is not listening to Dr Bimal’s presentation.
The problem for most of the opponents of the project is increased access itself. It was elite access before. They are just trying to put it under a disguise.
Someone should do a video of just the questions. I am loving the absolute jealously some ppl are displaying. The attitude of questioning the speed of project execution is what kept the country backward. Elite Luytenites r seeing themselves losing power and hence all this rona dhona. They deserve every bit of contempt shown to them.
Ye wahi do kaudi ke luteyns hai jo saale dikhawa karte rehte hai saale 😡
What really matters is how good the new building looks , how wells its performs and how well it ages anything else like public consultation and Megalomaniac Haze wtf is that ?
every doubt is clear🧡
JAI HIND🇮🇳
Very nicely presented and articulated by Dr Patel. The bulk of statements made reek of zealously, biases and political leanings, verging on grandstanding. People who don't have a say in even a municipal master plan in their on city wanted consultations foe Central Vista..the landscaper lady didn't even hear the presentation properly and started off with marginalisation of howkers etc.. there was somebody who was advocating use of glass! Glass in Central Vista really? Yuck !..These people are like earthworm which are mainly dorment all along but start squirming under sunlight !
kudos to u guys manage to arrange a talk in BIC . i mean getting past through Ramachandra Guha's influence on BIC. great
By the way, to the biased questions , here's a biased answer :
"Is Modi your client or the people of India ?"
Well Modi is chosen by the people of India with the highest ever majority till yet breaking even his own record .
If you ask different people for project inspiration all will have different ideas , the majority has chosen a man thus almost like a point of convergence of all the ideas of all the people .
Finally , the man pointed out the uniqueness in the Reichstag building , Westminster etc . The uniqueness here is that India is the largest democracy than all those countries , and our elected leader has won by the greatest margins of all time of any other democracy that's our uniqueness , so it is the will of the people at the end .
You got one thing wrong. In 1984, it was Rajiv Gandhi who won by highest ever majority and a record of 404 seats won by Congress alone which hasn't been broken till now.
@@rudrachatterjee2614 After that what happened? Rajiv Gandhi lost the plot completely.
Thanks for bringing this out these same people stopped the tower construction in Mumbai, on the name of so called ""Environmentalists""
I was hoping for a total padestrianisation of central vista with no cars but dedicated cycle paths at lease on the inside and push the roads on the outside. Better attractions for the people along with a at least a little commercial activities just to make it more lively maybe open cafes and restaurants because a lot of space seems like underutilised. Or is it too radical. I think they are something like that in Paris actually which looked very impressive.

Mr. Patel, thanks for the presentation. It was clear from your presentation that a lot of work had been put in behind the scenes to make this a reality. That was a very informative session. The future generations will study your significant contribution to history and the government's vision to build a brand-new temple of democracy.
Excellent Presentation, countering criticism based on rumours with logic. Would love to see a similar video explaining the detailed plans on redevelopment of kashi Vishwanath corridor.
it seems the presentation given has indeed been beneficial for us commoners to get the essence of the project ... regarding QnA ..seems Mr Bimal was talking to stone headed audience for an hour ..who were just to express their rants ....
Brilliantly answered all the hate questions, that too without getting agitated and completely keeping his cool.
Of course congratulations on solving so many problems in the Central Vista
Why so many angry, hate filled, enlightened "Professionals" basing their suggestions on "hearsay"?
Kudos to Mr. Patel, for he has given his best
I think I got the answer of why nothing got done in India in the last 70 years.
This is so brilliant. Loved every bit of the briefing. For a designer this is treasure throve of knowledge.
Fantastic….. India needs a change of mindset entirely from the mediaeval British era …
Good wishes from London
Ar Bimal Sir , u r the best. U hv done the most patriotic thing any Indian can do 🇮🇳
Haha dude these ppl took the efforts to go and listen to an hour long presentation only to vent out their anger lol.
Modi has made these ppl so helpless it's too good.
Bimal Patel will always be remembered for designing central vista and all of these lutyen nd Khan market gang members can only COPE ND SEETHE!
Bimal Patel sir answered the questions with calm. Sir answered all the questions . But the people who asked the questions are all biased. Some people asked illogical questions. I prey to God to give them some sense.
In the Constitutional Hall where 12 Prayers would be written, each prayer can be written in a Different Language of India & below it can be it's Translation in English.
12 Languages can be stqrting from the top-
1. Kashmiri
2. Punjabi
3. Hindi
4. Gujarati
5. Marathi
6. Kannada
7. Malayalam
8. Tamil
9. Telugu
10. Odhia
11. Bengali
12. Assamese
It would in a way display our Unity in Diversity which India represents.
Nice idea. Everyone can feel a sense of connect.
The only problem becomes that some language will feel left out.
Central vista is going to be an extraordinary marvel in modern Indian history along with Ram Mandir 🛕🇮🇳
can Dr. Bimal Patel give presentation on KASHI VISHWANATH TEMPLE
People asking about time. How much more time you guys want already 75 years passed and our country best officer are working in huts from last 75 years finally someone thinking about them who are working 24/7 for country. They deserve much better work place
Bimal Patel is patiently listening and answering! Kapil Mishra/Sudhansu Trivedi are the right persons to the questioners instead of Bimal Patel because the questions are political or Left in nature.
Are these new buildings going to be LEED certified green buildings? I think making them Green buildings is a must as a futuristic concept.
feels like a security risk detailing everything
Some top-most Junkyard from Lutyens Intellectuals are doing randi and Rona, bloody chuke hue Kartoos
All congi ecosystem wants is that Modi name is not etched in the memory of new Delhi legacy
Thats there problem🤣😂😅
These people remind a lot to me like the India before liberation .
And yeah providing space to the hawkers at the other side was a better idea , don't want bhelpuri stand ,golgappa stand right at the middle it's better to have a dedicated food counter area just the way shown. Keep it clean and tidy
These are the same oldies who will oppose anything good where either their consultation is not taken or which is not made by their political party. In India anything progressive takes place, there will be half the population which will stand up to stop it in the name of Heritage, environment, public space encroachment, pollution, government control etc.
You're amazing Sir.
disgusted by the people who asked those questions, most being illogical opinions rather than fair criticism.
it's funny that such people believe themselves to be the intelligentsia of this country.
Ok, but is there room anywhere for the PM extensive wardrobe, accessories and all….?
Some people want to live in nehru era of extreme poverty on ground and British educated elite on top. These third or fourth generation elites still have same mindset.
Any idea why the bleaches design is not used in lok sabha seats so the person in last bench also gets a good view of the proceedings like we have in cinema halls.
Which part of presentation, you didnt get my friend, its already designed as you desired. listen to the section where it talks about well of the house, better viewing capacity, better sight line then present structure, some visual representation about it can be seen in @24:59 and @25:08 for quick reference as well.
Nice.
I can see some people objecting just for the heck of objecting with no logic. Had Sreedharan asked people of Delhi how to built delhi metro, he would had been still making drawings on paper and delhi wouldn't have world class metro. These people are pessimists and nothing else. That one person who asked him who is his client, Modi, Puri or people of India. He must understand we aren't sweden wherein decisions are taken by referendum. We elect people and they take decisions for us.
The building should be built keeping 100 yrs population rise of India and resulting which the number of seats will increase.
Indians population will Max increase by 30% . Population is not a issue. New children born are already reducing
@@GaneshNayak bro actually population are decreasing slowly

why keep buildings in the same old style more architects new ideas new materials and public reviewing should have been used this is a 1 time project why make them so hastily really undemocratic way
Such a dull looking idea
Can you propose a better idea?
So unfortunate this project, a propaganda project is being rushed through like this when India needs a billion other things to spend on we are spending money on this fucking useless project.
@A A nope, the number of mps are going to increase significantly once delimitation takes place. Old place is inadequate. They used to pay 1000 crore each year for rent as some buildings are not owned by the government. Hence, they created a new one where they won’t have to pay the rent.
for comparision, we spent 970 cr rs. for building Afghan parliament. Now, that's the definition of wasting money. The govt. will save 1000 crs. annually on rent after this project, what makes you think this is useless?
Can you reply to the guys above me🧐 or did you change your mind🤔
Then the money you paid for your internet is also total waste why don't you donate that money?
Yeah. Let us invest on usual welfare policies and distribute rotis to your beggar family. Because infra , metro , cultural centres , expressways and everything is useless.
I knew that there were problems in Parliament building, but really those office buildings are so packed up... It's like running a business from home garage 🥲
