Abstract:
Urban design is an interdisciplinary field of exploration that is concerned with developing spaces in urban regions that allow for the provision of services and utilities to residents, whilst also achieving social cohesion and environmental protection. This paper has examined the scope of urban design interventions in India, a nation that faces critical challenges associated with rapid rates of urbanization. The problems that surround urbanization and economic development in developing economies have been analyzed, with special emphasis being paid to the South Asian region. Tackling diverse challenges including high pressure on necessities like water and electricity, increasing economic inequalities, social tension between different communities, and environmental degradation is crucial to the socio-economic development of India. Governmental failures have exacerbated many of these problems, which can be owed to the restricted definition of infrastructural and urban development. In that context, this paper has concluded that there is an urgent need of developing holistic urban design interventions in Indian cities, especially those where population growth has been intensive over the past few years.
