The Ahmedabad Urban Development Plan-making Process: A Critical Review
This paper critically reviews the city plan-making process in Ahmedabad, India. The aim is to review the process to establish its strengths and weaknesses. It is shown that the Ahmedabad Development Plan lacks analytical rigour and transparency and there is lack of clarity on how the final plan was finally decided. The mismatch between objectives and the means to achieve it is also shown. It is believed that such a critical review will be of interest to planners in India and other developing countries. In addition, it is intended to promote and formulate a more analytical and scientific approach to planning.
