New Delhi is the capital city of India. It is a small but very important part of the big city called Delhi. Imagine a big puzzle — New Delhi is one special piece in the middle of it all!
Important Places
In New Delhi, you can find very important buildings. These are like the heart of the country’s government. There is the Rashtrapati Bhavan, where the President of India lives. Next door stands the Sansad Bhavan, where leaders make big decisions for the country. And there is the Supreme Court, where important judges help keep fairness.
A City With History
New Delhi didn’t always look like this. Long ago, in 1911, leaders decided to build a new capital city. Famous architects from Britain drew beautiful plans. Workers spent many years building streets, buildings, and gardens. Finally, in 1931, the city was opened for everyone. Today, people remember this time when New Delhi began.
