Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal congratulated Delities after the national capital bagged 62nd spot in the list of the world’s best 100 cities for 2021. The list is prepared by Resonance Consultancy Ltd and is the only Indian city that acquired a place in the list of cities across the world.  

Delhi has jumped to the 62nd position this year from last time’s 81.

Kejriwal tweeted, “Such a 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.”


The AAP leader also tagged his colleague deputy CM Manish Sisodia post in his tweet which said, “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 in the list. There is a significant improvement from the past ranking i.e. 81."

Resonance Consultancy said it ranked the world’s best 100 cities which has a population of more than a million, using a “combination of statistical performance and qualitative evaluations” by locals and visitors in 25 areas grouped into six core categories. 

London acquired Number 1 spot again for the sixth time. 

Cities were judged based on diversity, weather, number of parks and tourist attractions, the number of social media hashtags and check-ins and including other determinants like Covid-19 infections as of July, income difference and unemployment for the first time being counted this year.

New York, Paris, Moscow and Tokyo followed on the second, third, fourth and the fifth positions respectively.

India’s Capital was described by Resonance Consultancy 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.”

It added, “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.”

Resonance Consultancy 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.”
