	Vaastu haunts a Charles Correa Design at Nerve Endings Firing Away
		The latest victim is the well-designed [by Charles Correa] Madhya Pradesh Vidhan Sabha.
		Although I don’t like the design too much primarily due to blatant use of symbolism [note the stupa roof] and typical Correa elements, it is at least different from the staid government buildings that were built post-Independence.
		The building now is in the center of a controversy as some MLAs are blaming vaastu of the building for killing their ilk.
