June has long days, Republic Day and summer concerts, but heat and crowds are rising.

June is powerful but less effortless than spring. Long days, Republic Day, summer concerts and open-air performance make the city feel alive, but heat, crowds and prices are rising. It works best if you plan early sightseeing and shift the trip toward evenings.
