The Secretariat is the "law-executing" edifice, is an enormous structure placed in a striking position at a right angle to the Shivalik Hills, which is Chandigarh's most magnificent natural landmark. The idea was to not obstruct the beautiful view that Le Corbusier loved so much.
The Secretariat façade is a sensitively modulated screen of sun-breaks, with vast areas of repeated pattern, to which life has been brought with the use of balconied projections, recesses, large windows, double heights, and so on.
