The Morning Standard
|July 31, 2025
THE Delhi government has chalked out an extensive roadmap for 2025-26 with plans ranging from curated heritage walks to film policy reforms and international-level infrastructure upgrades to position the capital as a vibrant hub for tourism and film production with a target to attract around five lakh tourists this year.
The Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation (DTTDC) said the department has earmarked ₹20 crore for promoting Delhi as a destination and plans to scale up its outreach by participating in 18 national and international events in 2025-26—up from 16 the previous year.
The number of fairs and festivals to be organised by the DTTDC is also expected to go up from 7 to 12. The estimated number of visitors at these events, according to the department, is set to increase from 3.5 lakh to 5 lakh.

The Young Regret Their Actions; the Old, Their Inaction
Youth tend to act first and reflect later. This may explain why many young people spend a fair bit of time regretting ‘sins of commission’, or things they’ve said or done. These ‘sins’ are usually the result of impulsive actions, poor decisions or simple social missteps. Feelings of regret may arise from cruel words hurled at parents, a fight with a sibling, a reckless purchase, a cringe-worthy message sent to an ex at 2 am, or a job impulsively quit.
