CM Arvind Kejriwal congratulated the national capital’s residents as Delhi ranks at 62nd position in the list of 100 best cities in the world for 2021. Delhi has made it to get ranked in the list prepared by Resonance Consultancy Ltd and is the only Indian city to be featured in the list. It has managed to jump from the position of 81 to 62nd this year.
CM Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, “Such good news for all Dilliwalas. All Dilli walas have worked so hard in the last six years to make it happen. The world is noticing the positive changes happening in Delhi”. He also tagged the post made by Deputy CM Manish Sisodia in his tweet. Sisodia tweeted in his post, “Congratulations to all the proud people of Delhi and @ArvindKejriwal for the leadership. Our beloved Delhi is ranked 62 in World’s Best cities. The only Indian city on the list. There is a significant improvement from the past ranking i.e. 81”.
Resonant Consultancy Ltd. said it has ranked 100 cities from the world with a population of more than a million using the “combination of statistical performance and qualitative evaluations”. London is again on position 1 for a continuous 6 years. The cities are ranked based on diversity, weather, tourist attractions, and a number of parks, social media hashtags, and others. New York, Paris, Moscow, and Tokyo have scored the second, third, fourth, and fifth positions accordingly.
National Capital of India was referred to as one of the “few places on earth with the hectic, pulsating pace of Delhi, which explains its #18 spot for Place, including a #29 ranking for Sights & Landmarks. The consultancy also said, “Indeed, Delhi is a city built upon or near the ruins of a previous city, and today visitors can trace through the eras, exploring centuries-old forts, tombs, shrines, and mosques. Old Delhi is where to soak it all in while weaving in and out of the chaos, shopping for trinkets and handicrafts in the frenetic street bazaars and gaping in wonder at the Red Fort”.
It further added, “Unsurprisingly, Delhi also ranks highly (#17) for Restaurants, and sampling everything you can is a must. Now, add a “click” to Delhi’s cacophony: despite its ancient roots, the city is bursting into the new millennium with a #23 ranking for Promotion. Its rankings in Facebook Check-ins (#14), Google Trends (#13), and Google Search (#9) all reveal a city eager to show itself off to the world”.
