Union minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Friday said the construction work on the government's mega plan to redevelop the Parliament Building, Central Vista and a composite complex for various ministries may begin by next year.

The minster said this on the sidelines of an event here. This is the first official reaction by the minister on the ambitious plan of the Modi government.

Under its mega plan to redevelop the over three-km stretch from Rashtrapati Bhavan to India Gate in Lutyens' Delhi, the Modi government has floated a request for proposal for the "development or redevelopment of Parliament Building, Common Central Secretariat and Central Vista."
