PM INAUGURATES NBCC BUILT International Exhibition-cum- Convention Centre (IECC)

New Delhi:  Prime Minister India Shri Narendra Modi inaugurated the International Exhibition cum- Convention Centre (IECC) on 26th July 2023. The unique and prestigious complex is built by NBCC. This venue will host the G-20 Leaders Summit which is to be held in September under the presidency of India. Earlier Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi performed “Pooja” ahead of its official inauguration and felicitated workers who were part of the construction of the IECC Complex.

The IECC (Integrated Exhibition-cum-Convention Centre) implemented at a cost of more than Rs. 2600 Cr. has been built by NBCC, a Navratna CPSE under the aegis of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs as a modern complex as part of the Pragati Maidan redevelopment project. The convention center is built on an elevated podium, giving visitors a view of India Gate. The Prime Minister applauded the tireless efforts, involvement, and commitment in the construction of the project which is now dedicated to the nation.

The IECC has the capacity to seat 7,000 people in its multi-purpose and plenary halls combined — larger than the iconic Sydney Opera House which can hold around 5,900 in its various halls.
