Urbanization in India has undergone significant transformations throughout history, shaping the country's social, economic, and spatial dynamics. This research paper examines the historical trends, challenges, and future prospects of urbanization in contemporary India. Pre-independence urbanization patterns characterized by ancient cities and trading hubs laid the foundation for post-independence urban growth driven by industrialization and rural-urban migration. The paper explores the economic, social, and environmental impacts of urbanization, including infrastructure deficits, social disparities, and environmental degradation. It discusses the role of urban governance and planning in addressing these challenges and highlights policy recommendations for promoting sustainable urban development. Looking ahead, the paper forecasts continued urbanization trends, emphasizing the need for proactive strategies to manage urban growth and foster inclusive and resilient cities for the future.
