At the new building
India has got a new Parliament building amidst political acrimony. It is important to remember that the true spirit of democracy and Parliament is not judged by the lavishness and modernity of a parliamentary building but by the quality of debates, adherence to constitutional provisions and a promotion of active opposition by placing Bills and drafts before parliamentary committees. The new Parliament building devoid of the true spirit of democracy is similar to being old wine in a new bottle.
