New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the new Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) complex, called Seva Teerth, and Kartavya Bhavan-1 & 2, which will house several key ministries, including the Ministry of Finance, Defence, Health & Family Welfare, Education and more on Friday.

When will it inaugurate?

PM Modi will inaugurate his new office Seva Teerth and Kartavya Bhavan-1 and 2 at 1:30 pm on Friday an then will address a public programme at 6 pm.

What is Seva Teerth?

The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) will relocate from the British-era building in South Block to its new address, Seva Teerth, the newly constructed building at Kartavya Path.

The move ends more than seven decades of governance from a British-era building and ushers in a new phase of administration. 

Seva Teerth complex will house his new office, National Security Council Secretariat and Cabinet Secretariat, offices that were previously operating from different buildings in the Central Vista area.

Kartavya Bhavan-1 & 2 accommodate several key ministries, including the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Culture, Ministry of Law & Justice, Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare, Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers and Ministry of Tribal Affairs.

Both building complexes will feature digitally integrated offices, structured public interface zones, and centralised reception facilities.

What's new in the built?

For decades, many of these ministries functioned from ageing and fragmented infrastructure spread across multiple locations, leading to operational inefficiencies, coordination challenges and rising maintenance costs.

"The newly constructed complexes aim to address these issues by consolidating administrative functions within integrated, future-ready facilities," the PMO official statement said.

Both Seva Teerth and Kartavya Bhavan-1 & 2 feature digitally integrated offices, structured public interface zones and centralised reception facilities to promote collaboration and seamless governance, the statement further said.
