India's capital and most populous city is Delhi, home to 31 million residents.
Subscribe to TDC: / thedailyconversation
This is the most populous city, and the capital, of a country that will soon have more people than anywhere else on Earth. Home to more than 31 million residents, it’s a chaotic place with a complicated history. It has major problems in housing, inequality, and transportation, but if it can solve them, its residents will experience an enormous increase in prosperity. As India’s seat of power, what happens here impacts a billion people and reverberates around the world. This is Delhi: a fulcrum of the 21st century.
Nestled along a protective ridge that sends Himalayan snowmelt either west to the tributaries of the Indus river, or east to the Ganges, Delhi is the gateway to one of the most expansive, fertile agricultural plains on the planet, and a collection point for goods on their way to an extensive coastline for export.
This land has been the capital of empire after empire for thousands of years, but the defining moment in its modern history occurred 75 years ago when India declared its independence from the British Empire at Delhi’s Red Fort. This resulted in the partition of the Indian territory along religious lines into India, and West and East Pakistan, which eventually became independent Bangladesh.
This had massive consequences.
This flood of new arrivals overwhelmed the city as makeshift housing settlements sprouted and grew all over. This building wasn’t done to code and lacked basic plumbing and sewers. It’s a crisis that Delhi is still struggling to solve. Today, the percentage of its residents living in so-called unauthorized areas is as high as 40%. That’s a staggering 12 million people.
But to get a more complete picture of what Delhi is today, we must go back to events after Indian independence. In 1947 Indian per-capita income had not increased since 1757-that’s 190 years of British imperialists taking ownership of - and exporting away - vast quantities of India’s bountiful natural resources. Revolutionary Mahatma Gandhi and his hand-picked political heir, Jawaharlal Nehru, knew the Indian people needed a far different system than what the British Empire had imposed.
What Nehru wanted was an idyllic ‘Total Society’ in which injustice and inequality would be defeated by the perfect nation-system. This dream was cemented during a short four-day visit to Moscow, where Nehru and his father were wined and dined by the Communist Party’s elite celebrating the ten-year anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution. With tightly managed visits to factories and theatres, it was an obvious attempt to impart a rosy picture of Soviet-style socialism onto visiting dignitaries, and it worked. Nehru was awed by the USSR’s achievements in industry, art, and bureaucracy.
Real estate and land development in the city of Delhi was tightly controlled. The Delhi Development Authority - or DDA - was created in 1957 and granted the exclusive responsibility of land development within the borders of the city. The DDA prevented individuals from owning more than a handful of acres and forced people to sell the agency their property at below-market prices.

One of the major reason why Delhi is like this is because of Urban Land Ceiling Act 1976, it was a socialist act made to stop large private companies to not buy large plots of land and develop it by themselves, the land would be in control by the government who would distribute it equally but refused to develop these lands...this is a major reason why in the main cities you cannot see skyscrapers, the planned development and highrises are only present in the city outskirts which have been developed since this anti-development socialist law was repealed in 1992...

6 I, Prophet Kacou Philippe that speak to you, I was born and I have lived on the earth and one day I will leave the earth. But there are two things that I have never understood on earth. First, homosexuality, the fact that a man marries a man, and then, the fact that for Salvation, men are led by pastors, imams and rabbis instead of a living prophet. 7 There is no religion that is closer to God than the other. The way of Salvation is a living prophet. And how can a man be in the will of God without a living prophet? God told me on April 24, 1993: "He who believes in you will come to the waters of baptism. It must be natural water where there are fish. You will turn him toward the east and baptise him in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for restitution. This will be the baptism for your time. And you shall not baptise a woman in menses.” And you Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists and Hindus, have you also done your baptisms exactly like that since April 24, 1993?

Her family invited me to stay with them for a month on a farm in Gujarat. Most people probably wouldn’t have considered it a vacation because I worked right along with them, but for me it was one of my best memories.

Nigeria may have a bigger per capita (over 20%) but what's the point when India has a higher PPP (about 20%), meaning they get more in real terms, for their money. As a Nigerian I hope you see my point.

@AKumar-co7oe 2 жыл бұрын

Nigeria has a higher GDP because it is specialized in oil exports, India's nominal gdp is low because it produces a lot of goods and services for domestic consumption that are not exported. In HDI terms Nigeria is at 0.54 and India is at 0.65 - quite a big difference. That said Nigeria's coast-adjacent areas seem to have HDI comparable to India - hopefully we see big gdp growth there soon.

@yanmi2148 2 жыл бұрын

@@AKumar-co7oe It is a common misconception that the GDP of Nigeria is based on oil. It makes up less than 10% of GDP. Federal Government revenues is made up significantly of oil exports though. Approximately 55% of Nigeria's GDP is services. Insurgency right across Northern Nigeria and Middle Belt with it's attendant displacement means productivity there is seriously hampered. However it is true the South of the country has much higher HDI, far lower maternal and infant mortality, children out of school and much higher living standards. The latest figures indicating poverty reaching 88% in the North and no lower than 45%. While in the Middle Belt between 22 - 38%,South East it trends at about 24% and South West 12% and as low as 4.5%. So you see it is a very diverse economic outlook. Historically Northern Nigeria has always had poor economic indicators which is why the ' British merged to separate entities ( while effectively splitting it in India) to form Nigeria in 1914 out of North Nigeria and South Nigeria. Southern indicators, particularly South West, usually outperforms India. As you may know we are have been the most successful immigrants to USA for sometime now, out perform all other ethnic groups educationally in UK and more recently our music has gone global. I've heard it even in Portugal. That being said with the utterly inept and corrupt set of people we continually have in government, India is making far greater strides moving forward.

This in turn increases the demand for Nigerian currency and makes it stronger. India is a net importer of oil which depresses the value of Indian currency. On the other hand this weaker currency has over the years forced india to invest into education and manufacturing to do value addition - while Nigeria has what is known as the "resource curse" or "dutch disease" - India exports more software services than Saudi Arabia does oil.

My India Great India will be the world leader once again! We are coming !! The expressways and metro constructions are at a record pace. The rail freight network is being expanded across the nation. The contributions from solar and wind energy are increasing day by day. The manufacturing sector is gaining momentum, especially mobile manufacturing, car manufacturing, etc. We are becoming more self-reliant and I believe that India has the power to move from a developing nation to a developed nation in the next 25-30 years and once that happens it will change the global perception of India

Delhi is a horrible city, I say this as a British Indian who visits India, I come from the South, Hyderabad, Delhi is full of scammers and rude guys. Please don't judge the rest of India like this. The South is much better, if you do ever visit again please make sure you go to Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Kerala, these are super modern cities with ancient history, the people are much kinder in their hearts and stay close to true Hindu values such as treating a guest to our home like God, you will find higher English literacy rates, more smiles and scamming is practically non existent as people hope true Hindu values of karma much closer to their hearts so they are better in their hearts, even auto drivers and Street food vendors have refused to take extra money for me as they believe in honest life and honest work, for example the scammers of India live in the North like Calcutta and Delhi, whereas Hyderabad to Bangalore and Chennai is known as the tech corridor with a lot of Western banks and tech companies having massive offices, there's a lot of white people and black people living there happily and they do not get scammed like they do in the North. Please reserve judgement until you visit the south and receive true Hindu hospitality 🙏🏾

Delhi has a very large network of METRO rail which even covers neighbouring satellite cities. I can understand your unfortunate experience but as someone who has lived in Delhi for a few years, Delhi metro is the most convenient mode of public transportation that I miss quite a lot after moving out of the city. Did you use the metro at any point of your travel?

Indians needs more infra before it's declared as most populated country, for good or bad we can't control the population there.

A minor correction, British did not take over India in 1757. That year British East India Company helped install a ruler in an Eastern province (Bengal) who allowed them wide rage of trade concessions within his dominion. For the next 100 years, British fought relentlessly to expand its influence in different other parts. Delhi fell to the British in 1857. British only had direct control over 49 % of India's territory. Rest were semi autonomous, self governing Princely States (565 in total).
