The phase II of Rashtrapati Bhavan museum, will be inaugurated on Monday by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to mark the completion of four years of President Pranab Mukherjee as the Head of State.

Secretary to President Omita Paul said, "Tomorrow we will be having a soft launch. We will give the tour operators a signal to start booking for it. For normal public the museum will open from October 2. It will be open six days a week. We have put the initial ticket price to be Rs 50 and gate number 30 will be designated for the entry".

Museum costs around Rs 80 crore and it took almost two years for the completion of the museum.

"Our focus was not to focus on object. The artifacts we have put here are related to the Rashtrapati Bhavan and the legacy the presidents have left behind. Here our purpose was to present the history," she added.

"This is the only museum in the country which is underground. This is an event based story telling museum, it is not a object based museum. It reflects particular events of history which are connected with the Rashtrapati Bhavan. The story is told in digital format, through virtual reality and other digital interactive platform," science popularizer and museum maker Saroj Ghose, said.

The phase I of the museum has also been renovated following shifting of few artifacts to the new area.

The museum developed at the site of the heritage building, where the garage for Rashtrapati Bhavan vehicles was earlier located,
