Urban Governance

India’s urbanisation is progressing at an unprecedented pace, with the number of statutory towns growing significantly in recent years.

India’s cities need a renewed thrust

India is at the cusp of rapid urbanization and by 2035, 43.2 per cent of its population will be living in cities. As urbanization has advanced, there has been discussion and concern over its challenges and how these might possibly be approached and responded to. India’s G20 presidency provides a unique opportunity to spearhead policy changes required to make the cities engines of economic growth.
