Ring Road, Delhi refers to two chief ring roads, a main one and an outer one in Delhi. The two ring roads have a combined length of 87 km (54 mi). There are two less significant Ring Roads in Delhi apart from the above two, namely the Rural Ring Road, that runs across the rural areas on the fringe of North West Delhi and West Delhi Ring Road, limited only to the West Delhi region.

Delhi's Inner Ring Road covers 55 km (34 mi) and is signal-free except for a small number of crossings. The road features three lanes in each direction, and is currently being widened to four lanes in each direction. It features a few flyover links to the Outer Ring Road.

The road also features robotic street sweeping systems, initiated recently by Chief Minister Sheila Dixit.

The AIIMS-Naraina stretch is in the process of being made signal-free.

Delhi is a metropolitan region in India that includes the national capital city, New Delhi. It is India's second-most-populous city after Mumbai, and the largest city in terms of area. With a population of 22 million in 2011, the city is the fourth-largest city in the world. The NCT and its urban region have been given the special status of National Capital Region (NCR) under the Constitution of India's 69th amendment act of 1991. The NCR includes the neighbouring cities of Baghpat, Gurgaon, Sonepat, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, Noida, Greater Noida and other nearby towns, and has nearly 22.2 million residents.

Although technically a federally administered union territory, the political administration of the NCT of Delhi today more closely resembles that of a state of India, with its own legislature, high court and an executive council of ministers headed by a Chief Minister. New Delhi is jointly administered by the federal government of India and the local government of Delhi, and is the capital of the NCT of Delhi.

Delhi has been continuously inhabited since the 6th century BC.[5] Through most of its history, Delhi has served as a capital of various kingdoms and empires. It has been captured, ransacked and rebuilt several times, particularly during the medieval period, and the modern Delhi is a cluster of a number of cities spread across the metropolitan region.
