New Delhi: After a few months of British-era tunnel found in the premises of Delhi Assembly, now the workers have discovered a mysterious execution room at the site.
Earlier, a secret tunnel was discovered inside the Delhi Assembly premises. Delhi Legislative Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel said that the tunnel connects with the Red Fort.
The building was built in 1912 after shifting capital from Kolkata to Delhi, housed the Central Legislative Assembly between 1913 and 1926.
Speaker Ram Niwas Goel stated that the building collapsed into inactivity after 1926. After that, the British officials shifted the building into a court and chose to have trials of "revolutionaries."
Speaker Goel said, "Revolutionaries were brought here from the Red Fort via a tunnel." He further said that possibly the convicts were sent to the execution room after the trial.

Goel also informed that a worker had provided information regarding a wall that seemed to be comparatively new. "When we knocked on the wall, it seemed hollow, and we decided to break it. When the wall was broken, we could discover the execution room."
A team of the Archaeological department will be called to date the bricks, wood, and other things found inside the execution room. Moreover, Goel said the Delhi Vidhan Sabha would be unrestricted to visitors. Previously, he has ensured that the tunnel would be refurbished and opened for tourists.
"In months when sessions are not held here, it will be open for tourists," Goel conveyed.
Even though the building dates around 109 years old, the building is not under India's Archaeological Survey.
