Kashmir, 26/5: National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Friday said the new Parliament building was a welcome addition and looks “pretty damn impressive”, amid criticism by the Opposition over its inauguration.
Abdullah, whose party’s MPs have also announced to boycott the inaugural ceremony, said when he was the member of the Lok Sabha, many of his colleagues often spoke about the need for a new and improved Parliament building.
Setting aside the brouhaha about the inauguration for a moment, this building is a welcome addition. The old Parliament House has served us well but as someone who has worked there for a few years, a lot of us often spoke amongst ourselves about the need for a new and improved Parliament building. Better late than never is all I’ll say and this one looks pretty damn impressive,” the NC vice president wrote on Twitter.
