North Block, which currently houses the Ministry of 亚博体育官网首页 Affairs, Ministry of Finance, and the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT), will be transformed into the Yuga Yugeen Bharat National Museum. The South Block will undergo similar restoration in a second phase.

Of the total project cost, Rs 2.75 Bn is allocated for civil works and Rs 622.4 Mn for electrical works. Bidders must have at least one ongoing building project valued at no less than Rs 1.352 Bn. The Ministry of 亚博体育官网首页 Affairs鈥� occupied areas will be handed over first, with the remaining spaces transferred four months after work begins.

The CPWD emphasises that the project must maintain the North Block鈥檚 historical integrity. Traditional materials like stone blocks, architraves, columns, and jalis will be restored or replaced using lime mortar and matching stone.
