  • National Capital Territory of Delhi: Towards a Unique Diarchy (...And Away from a Monarchy)
    Essay National Capital Territory of Delhi: Towards a Unique Diarchy (...and Away from a Monarchy) Rajgopal Saikumar Jun 30, 2015 Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung administers the oath of office and secrecy to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi on February 2, 2015. File Photo: PTI In this essay, Rajgopal Saikumar argues that the inherent diarchy in capital cities globally has to be recognised. Demands for full statehood or greater central control are both untenable. Monsoon refusing to rain down on Delhi because it’s not sure under whose jurisdiction it will fall - RushdieExplainsIndia(Twitter, June 20, 2015) 1. Balancing Inherent Tensions in Diarchies: Capital cities in several parts of the world face tension between the national government operating in the capital and local representative bodies of the capital. Capital cities are symbolic of the entire nation; they are the seat of the national government and host national institutions such as the legislature, the judiciary, national museums, universities, foreign embassies etc. But capitals like Delhi are also city-States in themselves. With a population of over 1.67 crores, Delhi is more densely populated than several full-fledged States, such as Sikkim, Mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh etc 1 . It is one of the most diverse and multicultural regions in the country, a land of migrants, and a hotspot of industry, commerce, art and culture. On one hand, the capital represents an entire nation while on the other hand, the residents of the capital lay claim for greater self-governance and enfranchisement so as to ensure that their own grievances are democratically heard through proper and accountable channels of governance.
