Sobhana K. Nair's Housing the Republic Explores India's Old Parliament Building
Sobhana K. Nair's book, Housing the Republic, explores the architectural and political history of India's old Parliament building, now Samvidhan Sadan. The work highlights the building's design by Lutyens and Baker, its symbolic role in India's democracy, and its connection to key political figures and events. Both articles emphasize the Parliament's physical and symbolic significance as a space reflecting India's democratic diversity and political evolution, without favoring any political perspective.
