Gupta also briefed the Union Home Minister on the Delhi Assembly’s commitment to sustainable governance through the implementation of a 500-kW solar power project, which will make the entire complex fully powered by green energy.
He stated that the initiative reflects the Assembly’s commitment to adopting environmentally responsible practices and sets a benchmark for other public institutions to follow.
Additionally, Gupta shared the vision to develop the Assembly complex as a heritage site, preserving its architectural and historical significance.
He conveyed to the Home Minister that the proposed plan aims to honour the national capital’s rich legislative legacy while integrating modern infrastructure, creating a space that stands as both a symbol of democratic heritage and a centre for civic learning and public engagement.
