As part of major efforts to modernize the central government’s workspace and improve efficiency in administration and governance, new Common Central Secretariat (CCS) buildings are being constructed to bring together ministries that were till now spread out in different parts of the national capital. One such building, Dutva Bhawan, was inaugurated in August last year and already houses several ministries.
