Green building’s development reduces the reliance on fossil fuels and reduces the total negative environmental effect. The main objective of this research is to develop a model for the implementation of green practises in the public sector constructions in India. We aimed to assess local construction professionals' knowledge and comprehension of green building construction in the public sector by distributing an empirical questionnaire to them. Participants were asked to rate their knowledge, understanding, and importance of the eight withholding factors and six contributing factors identified in the seminal literature. We use analysis techniques like descriptive and factor analysis such as descriptive and factor analyses to analyse the survey responses. A comprehensive model proposed to facilitate the purpose of promoting the successful adoption of green building practises within India's public sector construction projects was primarily based on the insights gained from factor analysis. Based on the findings of this study, the author suggests a model for implementing green building techniques in Indian public sector constructions. The model discusses obstacles to green building initiatives, considers implementation variables, and offers suggestions such as policy ease, and green building promotion.
