Explanation

New Delhi was built by the British as the new capital of British India, with construction led by architects Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker. The project took approximately 20 years (1912-1931) and cost around 15 million pounds. It was designed to replace Kolkata (Calcutta) as the capital and showcase imperial grandeur. The other options are not British-built cities in this context.
