Abstract: This research examines urbanization and urban development in India, focusing on infrastructure deficits, social and economic inequalities, and sustainability challenges. Rapid urban growth has intensified issues like inadequate housing, poor transportation, and unreliable utilities, worsening living conditions for many. Marginalized communities face systemic barriers, perpetuating inequality. Environmental impacts, including pollution and climate change, further complicate urban development. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical and current trends, policies, and innovative solutions, this study provides strategic recommendations for fostering inclusive, resilient, and sustainable urban environments, aiming to transform India's urban areas into thriving hubs of opportunity.
