PMO Shifts To New 'Seva Teerth' Complex From South Block On Makar Sankranti

This report covers the historic relocation of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) from South Block to the newly constructed 'Seva Teerth' complex. The move, scheduled for the auspicious occasion of Makar Sankranti, marks a significant step in the government's vision to shed colonial legacy. The speaker notes, 'It's a momentous occasion in independent India's history,' as the PMO leaves its post-independence home. Part of the Executive Enclave under the Central Vista Development Project, the 2,26,000 square foot complex was built at an approximate cost of ₹1,200 crore. The Seva Teerth premises comprise three main buildings: Seva Teerth 1 for the PMO, Seva Teerth 2 for the Cabinet Secretariat, and Seva Teerth 3 for the National Security Advisor’s office. The transition follows the 2025 renaming of Rajbhavans to Lokbhavans and the operationalisation of Kartarpur Bhawans for other ministries.
