In pics: New Parliament building's stunning images released day before inauguration

Photographs of various parts of the new Parliament building have been released a day before its inauguration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 28. 

From a bird's eye view of India's new seat of power with the old building in the background to an inside view of the corridors and the Lok Sabha, the pictures show the new Parliament in all its grandeur. 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will on Sunday inaugurate the new Parliament building, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, amid a boycott by several Opposition parties which insist that President Droupadi Murmu as head of the state should do the honours.

On Friday, Modi said the new Parliament building will make every Indian proud and shared a video of the new complex.

With carpets from Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh, bamboo flooring from Tripura and stone carvings from Rajasthan, the new Parliament building reflects India's diverse culture.

'Sengol', a historical sceptre from Tamil Nadu which was received by the first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to represent a transfer of power from the British and was kept in a museum in Allahabad, will be installed in the new Parliament building.

It will be placed near the chair of the Lok Sabha Speaker in the House chamber.
