Rashtrapati Bhavan is the grand palace of great majesty and refinement occupies a prominent position. It is built on a high basement constructed on an outcrop of rock, about 365 meters behind the Central Secretariat buildings. Originally known as Viceroy’s House, it is now the official residence of India’s President. Designed by Lutyens, Rashtrapati Bhawan was completed and, occupied in 1929. Money was spend lavishly on its construction. Its cost was £ 8,77,136. Thus it is clear that a very large part of the money spent on the buildings of New Delhi was actually spent on the construction of this splendid palace. It is indeed a magnificent palace, for it has many noble courts, stairways and apartments, a great durbar hall and a magnificent dome. It is one of the largest palaces in world. It is 192 meters wide and 161.5 meters deep from east to west. It measured 923.5 meters round the whole of its basement plinth. It has a total area of 19549 sq. meters. It is undoubtedly one of the most magnificent palaces of the world. The court is about 183 meters in breadth and 396 meters in length. The Jaipur column stands in the forecourt. From here roads lead off to north and south, forming alternative lines of approach to Rashtrapati Bhavan. The main entrance is form the east front. A flight of steps leads to the portico of twelve pillars, each 9.14 meters high. A further flight of steps leads from the portico to the vestibule lined with marble (12.19 meters high, half as wide and nearly twice as long). The four chhatris on the bastions ending the portico, the sparkling fountains behind them, the pressed stone screens at their sides and the long flight of steps leading from the portico form a magnificent approach to Rashtrapati Bhavan.
