        Urbanisation in India is the product of an increasing gap between the rising expectations of the people and the response of the national economy and body politic to meet these expectations.
      - Cities are "generative" and "parasitic" at the same time.
      - Urban planning in India was borrowed until recently. London, master plan -- Calcutta
        England, newtowns
        USA, megalopolises
    - - Introduction of new kinds of political organisations by the British.
        India has less percentage of people living in urban society but the rate of increase is much more than most of the countries.
        Cities of Asia and Africa are not evolving the same way as western cities did in the 18th and 19th C. Why? Here the growth is happening in the 20th C where development will be affected by contacts with fully industrialized cities.
        
        The adjustment westerners faced when during their urbanization, they went from village to City is much less than what Indians face during their's because of the drastic and dramatic difference during the time of India's urbanisation.

        Talk about India's Tradition., North of India
        
        This six-part documentary series is written and presented by historian, Michael Wood, on the BBC network is an absolute must-watch.
        The series' episodes take you from the Indus Valley Civilization to India's freedom, while extensively studying historical evidence and archaeological findings. Wood also indulges in rich conversations with the locals that reveal cultural anecdotes about certain historical events. The best part about this documentary series is that it gives equal importance to the history of Southern India, which is otherwise neglected in school books.
      - Powerless, Katiyabaaz
        
        This is the story of Loha, an electrician who is hailed as the Robin Hood of a locality in Kanpur. He achieved this status by stealing electricity and supplying it to a locality where 15-hour-long power-cuts were common. Providing a contradictory view is Ritu, the first female chief of the Kanpur Electricity Supply Company (KESCO), who is hellbent on eradicating the practice of setting up illegal electricity connections.
        This documentary effectively puts forward the concept of urban decay in one of the world's fastest growing economies.
