The city of Delhi, or
Old Delhi
(1991 pop. 7,175,000), on the Yamuna River, adjoins
New Delhi in the east central part of the state
and is a commercial center. It was enclosed by high
stone walls erected in 1638 by Shah Jahan. Within
the walls he built the famous Red Fort—so
called for its walls and gateways of red sandstone—that
contained the imperial Mughal palace. The fort remained
a military garrison until 2003. In the palace is
a public audience hall (Diwan-i-Am), where the splendid
Peacock Throne stood, and a private audience hall
(Diwan-i-Khas), built entirely of white marble and
bearing the apt inscription “If there is a
heaven on earth, it is this!” Shah Jahan also
built the Jama Masjid [great mosque], one of the
finest in Islam. Just south of the fort, on the
Yamuna's bank, is Rajghat, where the bodies of Mohandas
Gandhi and of India's prime ministers have been
cremated; it is now one of the most revered shrines
in India. In the northwest, beyond the old walls,
is the Univ. of Delhi.
The present city of Old Delhi did not become
important until Shah Jahan (for whom it was sometimes
called Shahjahanabad) made it the capital of the
Mughal empire in 1638. It was sacked (1739) by
the Persian Nadir Shah, who carried off the Peacock
Throne. The city was held by the Marathas from
1771 until 1803, when the British took it. During
the Indian Mutiny of 1857 it was held for five
months by the rebel soldiers. Delhi Cantonment
was (1912–31) interim capital of India until
New Delhi was officially inaugurated.
