"Guided by the vision of PM Modi to honour the contribution of all the Prime Ministers of India towards nation-building, the Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya is a tribute to every Prime Minister of India since Independence, irrespective of their ideology or tenure in office," press release by Prime Minister's Office press stated.
Sangrahalaya is an inclusive initiative led by PM Modi and is aimed at sensitising and inspiring the younger generation about the leadership, vision and achievements of all Indian Prime Ministers.
"Representing a seamless blend of the old and the new, the Sangrahalaya integrates the erstwhile Teen Murti Bhawan designated as Block I, with the newly constructed building designated as Block II. The total area of the two blocks is over 15,600 square metres," the PMO added.
The museum's design is inspired by the story of rising India, shaped and moulded by the hands of its leaders. Sustainable and energy-saving techniques are incorporated into the design. During the project, no trees were felled or transplanted. The Sangrahalaya's logo depicts the hands of the people of India holding the Dharma Chakra, which represents the nation and democracy.
