A unique designed building, fully air-conditioned Both interior and exterior you will find something different. Also a very beautiful Auditorium.
In 2004, after assuming the Office of Speaker, Lok Sabha, Somnath Chatterjee expressed keen personal interest in setting up a Museum on democratic heritage in India, a museum that he thought would be modern, high-tech and would conform to international standards. Dr. Saroj Ghose, former President of the International Council of Museums, Paris, and retired Director General of National Council of Science Museums in India was invited to submit an appropriate proposal. After the final proposal was accepted, the construction work started under the guidance of Parliament officials and elected leaders. On 14 August 2006, it was inaugurated by Prof A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, the then President of India, in presence of Bhairon Singh Shekhawat, then Vice-President, Dr. Manmohan Singh Prime Minister, Somnath Chatterjee, Speaker of Lok Sabha and many other distinguished guests. On 5 September 2006, the Museum was opened to general public.[5]
A highly secured area.It is well maintained.As soon you reach there ,an official will scout you inside the museum.You are required original id proof otherwise they'll not let you enter the museum.it's a museum which tells us the story of freedom struggle of India.It also has rare collection of gifts from foreign delegates to the speaker of lok sabha.A must visit place.. No crowd at all.
No better place to get a historical perspective of our Nation's polity evolution. The light n sound show, virtual "Tryst with destiny" speech are some of the highlights. Immensely educative for fertile minds of school children and ever so curious people like me. Enthralled !
