EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the grand opening ceremony of the new Council House in New Delhi, India, in the early 1930s. The Viceroy of India, Lord Irwin, and his wife, Lady Irwin, are seen arriving at the scene of the ceremony in the Viceregal carriage, accompanied by an attendant holding the Royal golden umbrella to shield them from the sun. The new capital of India, New Delhi, had been inaugurated just shortly before this momentous occasion. The Council House, also known as the Secretariat Building, was a symbol of British colonial rule in India and served as the seat of the British government in the new capital city. The building was designed by the renowned architects, Edwin Lutyens and Heinz Schmejcal, and was a testament to the grandeur and power of the British Raj. The procession leading up to the Council House was a spectacle in itself, with soldiers, officials, and dignitaries in full regalia, making their way through the streets of New Delhi. The ceremony marked the official beginning of the British administration in the new capital and was an important milestone in the history of India under British rule. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and pomp of colonial India. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that New Delhi continues to hold, making it a must-visit destination for history buffs and travelers alike.
