New Delhi

New Delhi, India's capital, has been a focal point for recent national events. It was the site of large-scale youth-led protests organized by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) concerning examination paper leaks, which led to the resignation of the Education Minister and challenged Prime Minister Modi's government. The city is also at the forefront of India's efforts to combat air pollution, aggressively promoting electric vehicles (EVs) with ambitious targets and expanding charging infrastructure, though challenges remain. Furthermore, New Delhi is positioning itself as an alternative to US-China influence in the region, as evidenced by its hosting of international events and diplomatic engagements, such as an upcoming Brics summit where India-Bangladesh ties will be discussed. The city's Jantar Mantar area has become a symbol of recent student activism and defiance.
