Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the foundation for the BJP headquarters in New Delhi on August 18. The seven-storyed building will have sophisticated architecture but keeping with the ideals of the RSS and the BJP.

BJP President Amit Shah  and other senior leaders will be present at the occasion where Vedic hymns will be chanted as PM Narendra Modi lays the foundation stone.

Interestingly, the UPA government had allotted two acres at Deen Dayal Upadhay Marg in the heart of New Delhi for the building. It will be the tallest building for a party HQ as other political parties like RJD, AIADMK, JDU and TMC have two or three-storeyed buildingS. Most political parties have their offices in Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg.

The present BJP HQ is housed at 10 Ashoka Road and is a government bungalow and is rather cramped. But the new HQ    is spread over 30,000 sq ft, has 30 rooms, a huge hall, and underground parking.

BJP is keen to complete construction of their headquarters by 2019. The cost of the construction is  expected to be approximately Rs 8 crore.
