Delhi has been expanding fast. The metro area now has over 25,000,000 people, making it the 3rd biggest city after only Jakarta and Tokyo. The city has grown outwards and spilled over into two neighbouring states: it now has territory in Delhi Capital Territory, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh. Around the city, new urban areas have been planned to accommodate spillover, such as Gurgaon to the south, and Noida to the east. The latter stands for New Okhla Industrial Development Authority, which now comprises roughly one million people.

Bonus:
Turning a clock or watch upside-down in the UK will give you the time in India, and vice-versa, but only when Daylight Savings Time is not in effect (as India does not observe the switch).
