On May 28, Hema Malini attended the inauguration of the new parliament building, and in this photo she was posing with other Lok Sabha members.

The new Parliament building is the landmark project of the ambitious Rs 20,000 crore Central Vista redevelopment plan. Built in an area nearly thrice that of the old Sansad Bhavan, the new Parliament House offers a significant upgrade in terms of legislative capacity and amenities. 

The construction cost of the new Parliament building estimated by the Central Public Works Department was Rs 940 crore over 21 months.

In terms of the materials used, the new Parliament has been constructed with 26,045 metric tons of steel, 63,807 metric tons of cement and 9,689 cubic metres of fly ash. 

Actors such as Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Anupam Kher celebrated the inauguration of the new parliament and called it a new house of democracy.
