NEW DELHI: New complex housing the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) will be called ‘Seva Teerth’, officials said on Tuesday. Earlier known as the ‘Executive Enclave’, the complex is now in its final stages of completion, marking a significant step in the Central Vista redevelopment. Officials described Seva Teerth as a workplace designed to reflect the spirit of service, a space “where national priorities take shape”. They said India’s public institutions were undergoing a “quiet but profound shift”, with governance moving from “satta (power) to seva (service)” and from authority to responsibility. “The change was not just administrative, but cultural and moral,” they added, as quoted by PTI.The enclave will house the PMO along with the offices of the Cabinet Secretariat, the National Security Council Secretariat and India House, which will serve as a venue for high-level talks with visiting dignitaries.As part of this broader shift in governance philosophy, Raj Bhawans—the official residences of state governors—are being renamed ‘Lok Bhawans’. The Central Secretariat, too, is now known as Kartavya Bhavan.Officials said that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, spaces of governance have been reshaped to reflect ‘kartavya’ (duty) and transparency. “Every name, every building and every symbol now points to a simple idea. Government exists to serve,” they said.Several landmarks have already been renamed in recent years. Rajpath became Kartavya Path, while the prime minister’s official residence was renamed Lok Kalyan Marg in 2016, a name intended to convey welfare rather than exclusivity. “These changes mark a deeper ideological transition. Indian democracy is choosing responsibility over power and service over status,” officials said. “A shift in names is also a shift in mindset. Today, they speak the language of seva, kartavya and citizen-first governance,” they added.
