Event to mark first milestone sparks Opposition-BJP verbal duel

In the first major milestone towards inauguration of the new Parliament building, likely by the end of the year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday unveiled the national emblem cast on the roof of the new building. Made of bronze, weighing 9,500 kg and standing 6.5 metres tall, the emblem is at the top of the central foyer of the building. It is supported by a 6,500kg steel structure.
