When the British constructed sprawling bungalows for their bureaucracy in the splendid new capital, they were never meant for permanent occupation: these houses were designed for temporary British residents who replaced each other like guests in a hotel. The Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Puri in a press conference on June 2 said that the government will be moving out the political parties from these bungalows. Jyotiraditya Scindia, who left the Congress to join the BJP in 2021, will soon be back at 27, Safdarjung Road, his home since the 1980s when his father Madhavrao Scindia first became a minister.
