Published By: CSH on eSS | Published Date: January, 01 , 2013The starting point of this study is the observation that many villages in India seem to
possess urban characteristics. As compared to definitions of urbanization adopted by
other countries, the Indian definition of urban area is actually unique in the world. One of
the consequences of a restrictive definition is that it potentially excludes numerous
localities. This paper consequently explores a multi-dimensional approach to answer the
question of what is an urban area. [CSH Wp no. 6].
