Description

Explore the history of urban living in India with this scholarly work from Routledge. Centered on the transformative date of 15 August 1947, this book examines the promises made by India's new leaders to provide decent housing and clear slums for all urban citizens. It provides a detailed look at the goals set for the nation's development during the transition to independence. The text is structured around two main areas of inquiry. First, it investigates the historical context of urban living, looking back at the 150 years leading up to 1947. It addresses the specific concerns regarding poor housing and sanitary provisions that existed for many citizens during the colonial period. By analyzing these historical conditions, the book offers a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the urban poor and the evolution of housing policy in both colonial and post-colonial eras.
