Lutyens’ Delhi got a new VIP address last week when Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar and his family moved into the recently completed Vice President’s Enclave on April 3. The V-P’s new residence was constructed as part of the Central Vista revamp. Making the move official, the V-P’s address on the official website of the V-P secretariat and the Rajya Sabha was changed to ‘108, Church Road’. The new location has brought the V-P’s residence closer to the Rashtrapati Bhawan and the North Block. The old V-P residence at 6, Maulana Azad Road was on the Central Vista.

Opening A Dialogue
