Delhi has a history that dates back over 2,000 years, and it's been the seat of power for multiple

emperors and kings.

However, in addition to being an ancient city, Delhi is also a modern city that serves

as the capital of the Republic of India. Learn more about Delhi and the difference between

0:21.1

Delhi and New Delhi on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. Before I get into the history of Delhi and the differences between Delhi and New Delhi,
