Make cities more economically dynamic, socially inclusive, environmentally sustainable: SurveyNew Delhi: The promise of building India’s urban future lies in making our cities economically dynamic, socially inclusive, environmentally sustainable, and institutionally capable, the Economic Survey 2025-26 said on Thursday. According to the Survey, India’s cities are not merely places of residence but function as critical economic infrastructure. The economic role of cities is, therefore, central to India’s growth trajectory, the Economic Survey said. India is already deeply urban in economic terms, with the majority of its national output generated in cities and in urban areas. The survey positioned cities as economic assets that require deliberate investment and strategic planning.
