News Mania Desk /Piyal Chatterjee/ 13th February 2026

Today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi opened Seva Teerth, the new integrated complex that will house the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), changing India’s most important speech. The move, which is the first since Independence, is to a new, cutting-edge building intended to improve administrative effectiveness and combine important executive tasks.

According to the government, the occasion is a “transformative milestone in India’s administrative governance architecture,” and the Prime Minister also unveiled a commemorative coin worth Rs 100 to celebrate the occasion.

Before formally launching Seva Teerth and Kartavya Bhavan 1 and 2, which will house various important ministries, PM Modi announced the project’s name at around 2:00 pm. According to officials, the project embodies the Prime Minister’s goal of creating a contemporary, effective, and citizen-centered governance ecosystem.

PM Narendra Modi authorized important programs that assist farmers, women, youth, and vulnerable communities in his first set of decisions after relocating to Seva Teerth. Among them are:

The PM Rahat initiative offers accident victims cashless medical care up to Rs 1.5 lakh.
Lakhpati didis aim doubled: After surpassing 3 crore ahead of schedule, the target was increased to 6 crore by March 2029. To improve the farm value chain, the agriculture infrastructure fund raised its investment from Rs 1 lakh crore to Rs 2 lakh crore.

Startup India Fund of Funds 2.0: A corpus of Rs 10,000 crore to support advanced manufacturing, deep tech, and early-stage businesses.

For many years, ministries were housed in dilapidated, dispersed buildings throughout Central Vista, which resulted in poor coordination, difficult logistics, and expensive upkeep. By uniting important administrative branches in infrastructure that is equipped for the future and built for smooth coordination, the new complexes seek to address these problems.
The government anticipates that the consolidation will improve transparency, cut expenses,

and expedite decision-making.Three key executive organizations that previously operated from different sites will be housed in Seva Teerth: the Cabinet Secretariat (Seva Teerth-3), the National Security Council Secretariat (Seva Teerth-2), and the Prime Minister’s Office (Seva Teerth-1).

To increase productivity and public involvement, the new complexes have centralized welcome areas, organized public interaction zones, and digitally integrated workplaces. Transparent administration and e-governance are anticipated to be supported by advanced digital infrastructure.

The complexes, which were constructed in accordance with 4-Star GRIHA standards, feature energy-efficient building design, waste management strategies, water conservation measures, and renewable energy systems. The PMO claims that these actions enhance operational effectiveness while lessening their negative effects on the environment.To maintain security without sacrificing usability, the buildings are outfitted with sophisticated emergency response systems, integrated surveillance, and intelligent access controls.

Once vacated, the South and North Blocks, where the Prime Minister’s Office has been running, will be converted into a public museum, ‘Yuge Yugeen Bharat Sangrahalaya’.
