History
The Indian mission originally occupied the
Ritan Park in Chaoyang. The Ritan embassy, which the mission had moved into in 1969, was a wooden two-story structure. Ananth Krishnan of The Hindu said the old embassy was "old-fashioned and increasingly cramped".[1] While the Ritan embassy operated, 29 diplomats, 28 Chinese employees, and 33 non-diplomat Indian employees worked in the embassy. The Indian government purchased a land site, which houses the current embassy, in 1989 for a 90-year lease for around $1 million USD.[1]
Current building
The current embassy opened in 2012.External Affairs Minister, attended the ceremony.[2]
