Abstract
In Indian cities, peri-urban zones, often known as the transitional areas between urban and rural settings, are seeing fast growth. These areas are distinguished by their intricate socioeconomic dynamics, fast urbanisation, and prevalence of informality. This study looks at the difficulties that peri-urban zones of Indian cities confront, concentrating on the obstacles and worries that exist in these areas. The research consisted of a literature evaluation followed by case studies to determine the most important problems and worries. According to the findings, peri-urban regions in India confront a number of challenges, the most significant of which are inadequate infrastructure, unplanned development, weak governance, and environmental degradation. Concerns include things like how land is used, where people live and work, their health, their childrens education, and other public services. The paper comes to a close with a discussion of the implications of these challenges and concerns, as well as offering recommendations to address them in a manner in which city managers can play an important role and track their thought process regarding sustainable planned development for respective cities.
