How is sansad formed

The Sansad Bhavan (transl. Parliament building) is the seat of the Parliament of India. At a distance of 750 meters from Rashtrapati Bhavan, it is located along Sansad Marg which crosses the Central Vista and is surrounded by the India Gate, war memorial, prime minister's office and residence, ministerial buildings and other administrative units of the Indian government. It houses the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha which represent lower and upper houses respectively in India's bicameral parliament.

The existing building draws inspiration from Chausath Yogini Temple, Mitaoli, and was built under the British empire for its Imperial Legislative Council in 1927. Following the end of British rule in India, it was taken over by the Constituent Assembly of India which was succeeded by the parliament of India once the Constitution of India came into force in 1950.

In the 2010s, a proposal was introduced to revamp Central Vista and re-build or relocate a number of administrative buildings which initiated a program expecting completion in 2024. As India aims to expand the membership of its parliament, a new parliament building is being built with a higher seating capacity of 1,350 members. The new building is expected to be functional in June 2022 while the older one is planned to be turned into a museum thereafter.
