Analysing effectivity of urban growth management in the National Capital Region Delhi, India
Managing urban growth has emerged as a challenge in rapidly growing complex mega urban regions in India and has drawn significant attention of the scholars, planners and the ministry. Although spatial decentralisation has been attempted in National Capital Region Delhi since independence in 1947, it has met with limited success in managing regional urban growth effectively. The urban development stages in the region were identified and the adopted decentralisation policies with their planning, and implementation environment were analysed. The findings of the investigations pointed towards lacking polycentric pattern of growth in the decentralisation attempts and institutional capacity for managing urban growth in the region. Future research in investigating polycentric pattern of growth in the form of transit oriented development would be advantageous in attaining spatial decentralisation by curbing sprawl. MANISHA JAIN was born in Mainpuri, India in 1975. She graduated as an architect from one of India’s prestigious university called Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, Ranchi in 1997. She is a lifelong member of Indian Institute of Architects in Mumbai. After working as an architect and planner in New Delhi the capital of India for ten years, she was granted Baden-Württemberg scholarship from the German ministry to persuade her masters in Infrastructure Planning from University of Stuttgart, Germany in 2007. She worked as research assistant for a year in University of Stuttgart, Germany. In 2009 she was given an opportunity by Rosa Luxemburg Foundation to undertake her doctoral study at the Institute of Regional Development Planning at University of Stuttgart, Germany.
