This document summarizes the regional planning process for the National Capital Region (NCR) in India. It outlines the growth of urbanized areas from 17,287 hectares and a population of 20 lakh in the existing area to a proposed urbanizable area of 44,777 hectares and population of 46 lakh. The regional plans from 1986-93, 2001 and 2021 aim to promote balanced development through economic activities, transportation networks, urban infrastructure and rational land use patterns. The NCR is divided into central, highway corridor and rest zones with different economic activity allowances. Strategies include encouraging population shifts to NCR towns, redevelopment within Delhi, and developing modern industrial estates/townships with necessary infrastructure.
