Title

URBANIZATION AND SLUM POPULATION IN INDIA: AN OVERVIEW

Authors

Abstract

Urbanization is a long term process and an index of transformation from traditional rural economy to modern industrial products based economy. In this perspective, the pace of urbanization and urban development has been very slow in India. As per census of 2001, only 28 percent of total population was living in urban areas which increased to 31.8 percent in 2011. Furthermore, it may be stated that share of urban population in 2014 was 32.37 percent and 33.54 percent in 2017. Thus, the growth of urban population has been very slow in recent years, when compared to developed countries. In other words we can say that the urbanization as a process in India is quite different from the western countries. Nevertheless, the process of globalization has given a momentum to the economic growth and industrialization in the country. Most of the scholars assume the fact that Industrialization and urbanization are keenly inseparable in India. Therefore, due to the process of Industrialization, the concept of urbanization has come into full swing in the recent years. Consequently, unplanned process of urban development in India has badly impacted in different ways such as lack of basic facilities like infrastructure, drinking water, housing, transport, air pollution, slums, education, sewerage, garbage, health etc. in metropolitan cities like Delhi, Bombay, Chennai, Calcutta, and such other big cities. Today growth of slums in urban areas has become a major problem and challenge to urbanization in the country which is a debatable issue for social scientists.
