Delhi Reclassifies Villages Amid Infrastructure Challenges and Pollution Concerns
Delhi's recent administrative change reclassifies its villages as urban neighborhoods to better integrate them into the city's development plans, addressing infrastructure gaps amid population growth. The Master Plan for Delhi 2047 aims to add housing and improve connectivity. Meanwhile, persistent issues like air pollution and building collapses highlight ongoing governance challenges. Officials have responded with measures such as suspensions and emergency plans, but data shows limited improvement in air quality, reflecting public concerns over safety and environmental health.
