    The new Parliament building, which is almost ready but for some finishing touches in the interiors and artwork and some equipment testing, is “state-of-the-art and full technology-driven” and has adequate space for offices and multiple conference rooms. Besides being rooted in the Indian ethos through a variety of artwork and decorative displays, the new building has regional representation writ large.

The 20 day state-wide tour, which began from four different parts of the state, in specially designed vehicles or ‘Rathas’, was kickstarted on March 1 by BJP national President J P Nadda at Male Mahadeshwara Hills in Chamarajanagar district.

This is said to be the first party meeting, which the Prime Minister will be attending, since the poll preparations began in Karnataka. According to party functionaries, the event is aimed at energising the BJP cadres in the run-up to Assembly polls. BJP, which aims to come back to power in the state with an absolute majority this time, has set a target of winning at least 150 of the total 224 seats in the Assembly.
