Delhi has always represented the spirit of India as a diverse, resilient, dynamic and aspirational city, Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu said on Friday.

Speaking at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), he said the challenges before the national capital required coordinated action.

“The task before us is not easy,” he said, citing urbanisation, environmental pressures, population growth, mobility challenges and resource management as key concerns.

“Reimagining Delhi is a shared responsibility. Let’s work together to build a Delhi that is environmentally conscious, culturally vibrant, economically dynamic, technologically progressive, and deeply humane,” Sandhu added.

Sandhu is an alumnus of the university’s School of International Studies, which hosted the event.

Reminiscing about his days at JNU, he said returning to the campus was a deeply personal experience.

“This is not just an academic space. It’s a place where ideas were shaped, where perspectives were challenged, where some of the most formative years of my life unfolded,” he added.
