BJP gets a new address as PM Modi inaugurates new office

PM Modi inaugurates the new office of the Bharatiya Janata Party which has moved base from 11, Ashoka Road in the heart of Delhi – the BJP’s headquarters for decades, often serving as a synonym for the party.

The new address – 6, Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg – is five kilometres away from the present office, on a street named after a prominent leader of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or RSS, the BJP’s ideological mentor.

Earlier at the event, BJP president Amit Shah said, “This is an important day for BJP. Every member used to dream of BJP’s own office. Now when the PM inaugurates this, this dream will turn into reality.”

The 70-room new office space, the foundation for which was laid by PM Modi and BJP President Amit Shah in August 2016, is a modern, multi-storeyed building with three blocks, spread over a sprawling two acres. The main building is seven-storey high, and the other two on the side have three storeys each, housing the offices of the party president and other senior leaders.

The WiFi office complex includes two large conference halls and a digital library connected to each party office in state capitals and district headquarters. There will be several eateries for party functionaries and visitors.

Underground parking for 200 cars is planned.
