A remark posted by a US-based immigration attorney during his visit to Delhi and has now triggered a larger debate about the national capital’s scale, density, and urban reality. As per the post, he was staying in New Delhi’s diplomatic enclave, which is home to embassies and government agencies, making it a relatively more orderly, tree-lined, and security-heavy zone.
