Habitat Center, New Delhi. It would be similar in both its purpose and function. It would
be an assembly of intellectual minds, social workers, artists, high rank officials,
industrialists, some eminent politicians and citizens. There interaction on social, political
and cultural issues would bring a fruitful difference to the society and habitat of people in
this part of the country.
