I spoke with Devashish Dhar, the author of the excellent book India's Blind Spot which talks about India's urbanisation crisis and solutions to it. We talk about
- Why does India have a much lower reported rate of urbanisation than the rest of the world?
- Explaining the global bias against cities
- “Extremely high levels of traffic is caused by poor land policy”
- Why are there so many floods in Indian cities?
- How to climate-proof Indian cities
- “India’s biggest unfulfilled promise is local government”
and much more!
