In 1911 when the British transferred the capital of India from then Calcutta to Delhi seldom did they know that what it would become in the coming years? Delhi is one of the largest cities of the country and definitely the hub for all commercial activity in the North and also has the largest airport in the country.
It is called the Dil or heart of the country and its so true. Delhi is the hub for all activity in the country including political commercial, sports art and culture.
What makes Delhi so special is the fact that any person belonging to any caste culture, creed or part of the country can find a home here. It is a mix of elite and middle class and also the home to politics. It is connected with all parts of the country and has the busiest railway station with 16 platforms and 5 different active railway stations all of them equally busy. It’s a hustling town which makes the country move ahead. Surrounded by satellite cities, Noida and Gurgaon it has become the IT hub of the north and most companies including Google, Apple, Yahoo and other majors like HCL have their offices or headquarters here in the NCR region.
Delhi is also the fashion city of the country and is responsible for the progress of art and craft. The food of the old city and the trends of the new city are a fusion which is not match able anywhere else in the world. It is incomparable in terms of energy and also unbeatable in terms of pace. Delhi has the largest network of metro transport in the country and the nation’s only airport express train system. It also boasts of the largest CNG run public transport system and being the host of one of the best Common Wealth Games in the history.
Delhi is the pulse of the nation. You can live in Delhi, eat in Delhi, enjoy in Delhi, dream here and to top it all belong to Delhi. This makes Delhi, my city Delhi.
