A dream comes true - Deve Gowda on New Parliament Building

A dream comes true - Deve Gowda on New Parliament Building

Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, who on Sunday attended the inauguration of the new Parliament building in New Delhi, said it is his good fortune that he witnessed a great moment in India's democratic history. The 91-year-old expressed his joy, saying he never thought that he would sit in a new Parliament building in his lifetime.

"It is my good fortune that I witnessed a great moment in India's democratic history. I entered the Karnataka legislative Assembly in 1962 and have been a Member of Parliament since 1991. When I entered this great house of the people 32 years ago, I had never thought I will be Prime Minister, and I did not expect to last this long in public life," Mr Gowda said.

"But the even bigger surprise is that I never thought I will be seated in a new Parliament building in my lifetime — I did so at the age of 91," he said in a statement. It is a sort of dream comes true.
