PHOTOS: The streets of Delhi, during times of Covid-19
The streets of Delhi feel like they have metasised into a time warp of the past. Wide open pristine boulevards, and telling architecture that harkens history with compelling contemporaneity, present a formidable flashback to fight an unseen and merciless enemy presently banging on our doors.

Qutb Minar: The UNESCO World Heritage site, Delhi’s soaring 73 meter high Indo-Islamic Victory Tower was built in 1193 by Qutub-ud-din Aibak to mark the defeat of Delhi’s last Hindu Kingdom. At its bottom is the Quawwat ul Islam mosque, the first mosque to be built in India. It remains a beacon for Delhi’s multilayered history, proud, tall, and weathered through time.
