Themed around smart and sustainable spaces, the event has over 100 exhibits.

Speaking on the occasion, Purohit emphasised on the role of architects and decor in the field of building construction. Citing the examples from Taj Mahal, Red Fort and Ajanta Ellora, he said Indian buildings were among some of the most recognisable across the globe.

PhDCCI’s Chandigarh chapter chair Madhusudan Vij said the construction industry has opened the doors of many small industries, hence it’s a high time to strengthen it by promoting investment in this sector. Former president Ashok Khanna, meanwhile, lauded the efforts to bring together architects and interiors under one roof through such platforms.
