capital of India

Most people think that New Delhi is Delhi but it is not. There is actually a difference between the two places: New Delhi and Delhi Delhi has a governor as the head of the government. The Government of India and the Delhi government jointly administer New Delhi.It is very hard to draw a boundary between Delhi and New Delhi. But one can make out the difference when looking at the architecture. In New Delhi, there is the Rashtrapathi Bhavan, Secretariat building, Parliament, Connaught Place, Lodhi Gardens, Jantar Mantar and India Gate. The embassies of other countries are situated towards the South of New Delhi. The streets and lanes in New Delhi are beautiful and tidy when compared with those of Delhi. In Delhi, one can come across old monuments, Mughal architecture and tombs. Red Fort, Lotus temple, Juma Masjid, Humayun Tomb are some of the old monuments in Delhi. It was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens under the British. With the help of the excellent metro rail and road network, New Delhi is just a stone’s throw away from Old Delhi. Wide roads, sky-rocketing buildings, stunning infrastructures and great flyovers are some of the definite points which differentiate New Delhi from Old Delhi’s narrow, unhygienic and congested by-lanes. New Delhi, the phrase “Dilli Dilwaalon ki” (Delhi for the large-hearted) indeed holds true for every Delhiite! PROs: 1.) Most happening city of India 2.) People with high intellectual quotient 3.) Most well developed infrastructure in South Asia 4.) Lot of places to hang around 5.) Many tourist destinations in vicinity (Agra/Shimla/Manali/Jaipur etc) 6.) Best transport system compared to other cities in India Cons: 1) Driving skills of Delhites are famous for all the negative reasons 2) A bit of discriminating attitude if you are not from Delhi. 3) Extreme climate #hotelstay
