The controversy over the inauguration of the new building of Parliament is not stopping. Out of total 40 parties, 20 opposition parties including Congress have announced its boycott. On the other hand, 17 parties including BJP have accepted the invitation of the government.
The opposition says that the decision to get it inaugurated by the Prime Minister bypassing President Draupadi Murmu is not only a serious insult, but it is also a direct attack on democracy. The joint statement of the opposition parties on Wednesday said that the soul of democracy has been removed from the Parliament in this government. In such a situation, there is no point in building a new building.

Who said what on the new parliament controversy
- Congress leader Jairam Naresh said, ‘Yesterday, President Draupadi Murmu inaugurated the country’s largest judicial complex in Ranchi, Jharkhand. It is one man’s arrogance and desire for self-promotion, which has denied the first tribal woman President the constitutional privilege of inaugurating the new Parliament House on May 28.
- Ghulam Nabi Azad said that as far as the construction of a new Parliament building is concerned, it is not a new thing. This was the thinking of Congress only 32 years ago. Now if someone boycotts it or does not go to the inauguration ceremony then they have nothing to comment on. The construction of the new building was necessary and it is good that it is now done.
Havan-worship in the morning, PM Modi will inaugurate at 12 noon
On May 28, Sunday morning, there will be a puja with a Havan at the new Parliament House. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate at 12 noon. Shram Yogis who contributed in the construction of the Parliament House will also be honoured.
PM Modi had performed Bhumi Pujan of the new building of Parliament House on 10 December 2020.
Scepter will enter Parliament after 75 years
Modi will install the sacred sengail (scepter) near the Lok Sabha speaker’s seat at the inauguration of the new parliament building on May 28. It was handed over to Pandit Nehru on the night of 14 August 1947 by the British as a transfer of power. It was kept in Anand Bhavan before 1960 and in Allahabad Museum since 1978. Now after 75 years the scepter will enter the Parliament.
