vrushangshah93@gmail.com Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Seva Teerth, the new Prime Minister’s Office complex and the PMO’s new address.
The Prime Minister was joined by several Union Ministers, including Dr Jitendra Singh, Minister of State in the PMO, Manohar Lal Khattar, Minister for Housing and Urban affairs, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and other senior dignitaries.

Seva Teerth Kartavya Bhavan-1 & 2 accommodates several key ministries:
- the Ministry of Finance,
- Ministry of Defence,
- Ministry of Health & Family Welfare,
- Ministry of Corporate Affairs,
- Ministry of Education,
- Ministry of Culture,

PMO, NSCS and Cabinet Secretariat under one roof
Seva Teerth became the new home of the Prime Minister’s Office, the National Security Council Secretariat and the Cabinet Secretariat, consolidating institutions that earlier operated from multiple locations across the Central Vista.
Moving beyond the British-era blocks
The inauguration marked a transition from the North Block and South Block, which had served as the seat of India’s executive power since 1931 and housed ministries such as home, finance, defence, external affairs and the PMO.
Both building complexes feature digitally integrated offices, structured public interface zones and centralized reception facilities. These features will foster collaboration, efficiency, seamless governance, improved citizen engagement and enhanced employee well-being.
Designed in accordance with 4-Star GRIHA standards, the complexes incorporate renewable energy systems, water conservation measures, waste management solutions and high-performance building envelopes. These measures significantly reduce environmental impact while enhancing operational efficiency.
The building complexes also include comprehensive safety and security frameworks, such as smart access control systems, surveillance networks and advanced emergency response infrastructure, ensuring a secure and accessible environment for officials and visitors.
After the inauguration of New PMO, Delhi Metro’s Udyog Bhavan station has renamed as Seva Teerth.
