several kingdoms and empires as their seat of Government. Hence, it
was often been compared to a phoenix that resurrects itself from
its ashes.
New Delhi is the 8th location of capital cities within Delhi. The
division between Delhi and New Delhi is the division between the
capitals of the Moghals as well as their predecessors and of the
British Government respectively. More than three thousand four
hundred fifty years of history has made it one of the greatest
capitals of the world.

century in terms of political, economic, cultural and industrial
activities. It has been the epicenter of India's political life with
