Ever wondered why Delhi is India’s capital — and not Mumbai or Kolkata? 🤔
Historically, Delhi was the power center of many empires — from the Tomars and Lodis to the Mughals. That’s why it already had strong political and cultural importance.
When the British ruled India, their capital was Kolkata (Calcutta). But Kolkata was far from Central and Western India, making it difficult to manage administration efficiently.
📍 Plus, Bengal had rising nationalist movements and protests, making it risky for the British Raj.
In 1911, they decided to shift the capital to Delhi, a city that was centrally located, historically powerful, and politically symbolic.
The British developed Delhi’s infrastructure, rail, and roads, making it a true administrative hub — and after Independence, Delhi remained India’s capital.
