Statehood for Delhi: Tracing the history and legal journey since 1911

Before Delhi became the capital of British India in 1911 it was part of the Punjab province. Even in the early days of the capital building, the tussle between the municipality under Punjab and the imperial government had become evident. Negotiations over power-sharing in Delhi took place in the Drafting Committee of the Constituent Assembly too.
