The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) will reportedly move from the historic South Block to the newly constructed Executive Enclave as part of the Central Vista Project. The relocation, planned for September, comes 78 years after independence and will place the PMO closer to the Prime Minister’s residence.
According to the government, the old North and South Block buildings will be repurposed into the “Yuga Yugin Bharat Sangrahalaya,” a world-class museum showcasing India’s cultural heritage, history, and future aspirations. To facilitate this transformation, the National Museum has partnered with France Museum Development.
During the recent inauguration of new administrative buildings, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted that governance had long operated from colonial-era offices, often struggling with inadequate space, ventilation, and natural light. The new enclave, he said, would provide modern infrastructure aligned with India’s cultural and historical identity.
Alongside the PMO, the Executive Enclave will house the Cabinet Secretariat, National Security Council Secretariat, and a state-of-the-art conference facility—features missing from the old colonial structures. The government has also hinted that the new PMO may be renamed to better reflect its public service character.
