Describe any five major changes brought about in delhi by the British before the development of new Delhi?
Answers
Kashmere Gate, which stands near the Bada Bazar in north Delhi, bears the scars of cannonballs that rained down on it more than a hundred years ago.
During the ghadar (mutiny) of 1857, Indian Sepoy and citizens rose against the East India Company and seized Delhi. For three months, the rebels held the city against the British cavalry, who fired canons at the gate, attempting to breach its walls and lay claim to Delhi. As summer gave way to September, Kashmere Gate fell to the British, and with it, the rest of Delhi.
Social reforms - the social and religjous reforms in new delhi began by the influence of the western education and culture. For example, the act of the child marriage restraint and the act of the widow's remarriage.
Transport and communication system was improved. This was to ease administration.
The democratic system is not also that efficient hence bringing in some loop holes .
