The city of Delhi, or Old Delhi (1991 pop. 7,175,000), on the Yamuna River, adjoins New Delhi in the east central part of the state and is a commercial center. It was enclosed by high stone walls erected in 1638 by Shah Jahan. Within the walls he built the famous Red Fort—so called for its walls and gateways of red sandstone—that contained the imperial Mughal palace. The fort remained a military garrison until 2003. In the palace is a public audience hall (Diwan-i-Am), where the splendid Peacock Throne stood, and a private audience hall (Diwan-i-Khas), built entirely of white marble and bearing the apt inscription “If there is a heaven on earth, it is this!” Shah Jahan ... built the Jama Masjid [great mosque], one of the finest in Islam. Just south of the fort, on the Yamuna’s bank, is Rajghat, where the bodies of Mohandas Gandhi and of India’s prime ministers have been cremated; it is now one of the most revered shrines in India.

Introduction: In the six decades since the creation of New Delhi as the capital of British India, the city has undergone a sea change. Made in initially to cater to a population of 70,000, the total urban population of Delhi now exceeds 10 million. The city has exploded in all directions beyond the confines of Lutyen's wide, tree-lined avenues, with an exuberance that is characteristically Indian.

Delhi and her caregivers have waited too long for her introduction to her new family and release into the habitat. Delhi did well throughout her quarantine but near the end she began to show a yearning to interact with the other elephants. It was painful to watch the other elephants pace around Delhi's yard and not be able to get close. Finally her quarantine is lifted and Delhi is free to go! After meeting Tarra close and personal, Delhi wasted no time exiting her quarantine yard and heading directly into the habitat. She was in no great hurry; there was no "granny dash" but she was definitely curious of her new surroundings.
