A Review of Urbanization in Kanpur: Issues with River Management and Challenges to Achieving a Viksit Bharat

Author(s) Ms. Moni Tiwari, Prof. Pankaj Kumar Singh, Mr. Deepak Kumar Chaurasia
Country India
Abstract Kanpur, India's one of the oldest and most industrialized cities, has experienced rapid urbanization over the past decades, resulting in significant environmental and infrastructural challenges. Chief among these is the deteriorating health of the Ganga River, which runs through the city and serves as a critical ecological and cultural lifeline. Foremost among these has been the decaying health of the Ganga River, on whose banks and through which this city flows as a vital cultural and ecological link. This paper reviews the multifaceted impacts of urban expansion on river management in Kanpur, focusing on industrial pollution, inadequate sewage treatment, and unplanned growth. It also discusses how these issues represent significant challenges to realizing the national vision of "Viksit Bharat"—a developed and sustainable India by 2047. Through an examination of policy frameworks, urban governance systems, and environmental statistics, the study determines areas of reform and strategic intervention. This review article argues for an inclusive and composite approach to urban planning that juxtaposes development with ecological integrity so that the trajectory of development of Kanpur aligns with the larger aspirations of a Viksit Bharat.
Keywords Urbanization, River Management, Ganga River, Viksit Bharat, Kanpur.
