Now, he has replaced it with his own picture.About Bharat MandapamBharat Mandapam, the venue of the G20 Summit, is designed as a window to India, displaying the country's rich heritage and cultural diversity to the world.Located in the heart of the national capital, the state-of-the-art international convention-cum-exhibition centre embraces the fluidity of river Yamuna, which flows through the city, in its elliptical design devoid of any sharp edges -- a theme that also reflects in the pavilions and the galleries."Hundreds of years back, the Yamuna flowed through this site. If you look at the convention centre, we have created it in very fluid lines. Fluidity is the nature of water. Similarly, the convention centre does not have any sharp edges. It is elliptical, there are two ramps which come down," Sanjay Singh, Director, Arcop Associates, and the architect of the project told PTI.With inputs from PTI
