The Central Vista redevelopment project includes buidling a new triangular Parliament, a common Central Secretariat and the revamping of the three-km-long Rajpath from the Rashtrapati Bhavan to India Gate and new residences for the Prime Minister and the Vice President. The Central Vista project has been criticised by opposition parties arguing that the money would be put to better use if it were spent to upgrade the healthcare system.
