True Delhi was a capital but of what? We are talking India as a whole and Delhi was never a capital except for small dynasties throughout history, only reaching some importance in the last few centuries.Delhi have been capital of India for long
Prithviraj ruled through twin capital Delhi and Ajmer.
Indraprastha itself is part of Delhi so there isn't much more to say about historical importance.
We can move in phases?I think central India is ideal for being the capital. Delhi currently looks like hell with all the pollution and muzzie lynch mobs!
Then again how much it will cost with infra and the shifting and all?

No, capital is better a small, rich and efficient city with low population and not an economic backbone. Why? See protests.Would it make sense to assign the wealthiest city or the city with the most international relations to be the capital?
also geographically well protected,No, capital is better a small, rich and efficient city with low population and not an economic backbone. Why? See protests.
Know that, without an emergency like a WW3 where India's capital gets gets destroyed, capital won't move in this century or even in next century. Buildings are being designed for requirements of 150 years and will even survive longer in architectural terms.With new parliament building and other stuff, shifting is definitely not gonna happen ever.
True, considering how things may unfold and pan-out in the future. Hopefully such dire needs don't arise.Know that, without an emergency like a WW3 where India's capital gets gets destroyed, capital won't move in this century or even in next century.

There is no benefit in shifting the capital.Delhi has been India's capital , only since dawn of islamic invasions , although today it's seat of government of india ,yet its a city which always signifies defeat because first being capital of invaders from North and later being capital of bristish raj .
Kindly give your opinion , about above thought and suggest alternative capital cities .
