Demolition of Udyog Bhawan Begins Under Central Vista Redevelopment Project
Demolition of Udyog Bhawan in central Delhi has begun as part of the Central Vista redevelopment project, following the earlier dismantling of Nirman Bhawan. Both buildings, constructed in the late 1950s, housed key ministries that have now moved to new Kartavya Bhawan complexes. The redevelopment includes plans for additional buildings under the Common Central Secretariat and an Executive Enclave, while some heritage structures are set to be retained. The project also involves redesigning traffic and parking to manage congestion.
