Part of a Territory. New Delhi is a city within the larger National Capital Territory of Delhi, which is an area directly governed by the central government rather than a state.

Beautiful Design. Much of New Delhi was designed by British architect Edwin Lutyens with wide streets and planned neighborhoods that still shape how the city looks today.

Local Government. The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) handles local services like schools, roads, and water for the city's residents.
